Rememburger: A Frankenstein of Meat and Sauce | GMTK Game Jam 25

The boys are back and HUNGRY. This year for the GMTK 25 Game Jam, Systems in Play slaved over a hot grill to cook up this wonderful, delicious, mouth watering, tasty, succulent, 100% beef, fresh never frozen, burger of a game: Rememburger. Watch in real time as we spiral into madness making this game in only 96 hours.

Important Announcement!

You may have noticed we haven't had a proper episode in a minute. We're not gone, just changing it up. In order to talk about games you need to play them so we've opened up more time to do so! From now on, we are going to be live-streaming our playthrough of various games and afterwards make a juicy podcast episode about some aspect, if not the entirety, of that game. We've been streaming Inscryption and so far we've had two streams on twitch and one stream over discord. All of the vods for these can be found on our YouTube [https://www.youtube.com/@SystemsInPlayPod] channel. We hope to finish the game soon, so come check us out as we stream on Twitch [https://twitch.tv/systemsinplay] every Thursday! Join the discussion on our discord [https://discord.gg/H8PzRVzFun]

SiP On-SIte: "Content Warning"

We regret to inform you that the boys from Systems in Play have passed. Multiple times, in fact. In an attempt to record a podcast while also filming scary monsters and not so nice ghosts in a world unknown to them, the frights were just too much. The following footage is all that remains of this foolish escapade. Systems in Play On Site is an experiment in recording a podcast while also capturing footage in the world that the episode is about. You know those podcasts where two dudes sit across from each other in chairs? Imagine if those two dudes had to peel potatoes while recording their podcasts. Now imagine those chairs were entire virtual worlds and those potatoes were a lot bigger and trying to kill them. This is Systems in Play On Site. This format is something we're trying for the month of October so if it's not your jam, no worries it's not permanent. If, however, this is your jam, then let us know and we might just make this a normal thing. Systems in Play is a bi-weekly podcast that discusses the art of making games, and the joy of playing them.

Episode 13: Becoming Steve in Minecraft

Systems in *cough cough* Play is *wheeze* back and *blows nose* SICKER than ever. That's right, folks, CJ got covid. We're crawling back to the mic, congested and coughing, to bring you an ultra chill episode about what we've been playing over the past couple weeks. Sam's been on a minecraft kick, so we take a beat to talk about building mechanics and our favorite creations across different series. CJ decided covid hadn't melted his brain enough, and talks about his recent play through of remnant 2. Stay to the end for a new segment we're calling the HALL OF GAME.

Episode 12 - There's No Such Thing as a Bad Game

Have you ever played a game and thought: "wow, that sucked"? Have you experienced the joy of having a remake announced for your favorite game, only for it to come out and completely miss the point of the original? Have you ever tried to return a frustratingly buggy game on Steam, only to realize you're just minutes over the refund period. If this sounds like you, then fret not. Systems in Play is back and here to inform you that "There is No Such Thing as a Bad Game". This week, Sam attempts to explain his…interesting philosophy about game quality. We get pretty esoteric in this one, stick around to hear discussions about: 'what even is art, actually', 'what it means to be critical of a game', and 'what are the artistic merits of a slot machine'.
