Abstract Ben-tomo! is a cooperative multiplayer VR cooking experience, in which 2 players must work together maneuvering around progressively wackier kitchens to prepare bentos, Japanese lunch boxes, before their customers lose interest. Using the VR facilities provided by Takemura Labs at Osaka University, we were able to create a compelling experience for both HTC Vive and Oculus Rift users that encourages cooperation and excitement between players.
