Golden Cobra Challenge (2017)
Canned: Nominated, Honorable Mentions
A game about the often meaningless and always painful process of getting laid off, Canned by Alex Rowland depicts the ways in which workers are denied their humanity and defined by their economic output before extending a hand to build them back up. This game is caring and sharp, with a strong set of values behind it and an emphasis on safety and player care. Canned feels like a necessary game to push back against capitalist notions that we are nothing but what we produce.
