27 - Gamify "Rocket Science"

When rocket science meets tax season and a zombie apocalypse, only gamification can blast through the chaos.In this epic episode of Gamify This, Samuel hosts Gamify Rocket Science; a mission so vast it required recording in two sessions that were months apart! Samuel boldly treats rocket science not as a final frontier, but as the ultimate tool, applying its principles to two wildly different domains. In Round One, Sean and Puzzle launch a gamified system for filing taxes, where Puzzle's financial knowledge clashes with Sean's unorthodox theories based from Kerbal Space Program. In Round Two, they blast off into gamifying workout goals, where the trio's conflicting philosophies on motivation and metrics collide in a zero-gravity debate.The mission culminates in a frantic third-round finale: with half the population returning to Earth and the other half turned into zombies, the hosts have one shot to design a multi-stage gamified solution to save the world. Can Sean's orbital mechanics combine with Puzzle's resource management and Samuel's mad-scientist vision to pull off the rescue? Tune in for the most ambitious, unhinged, and interplanetary episode yet!Thumbnail art by: https://www.youtube.com/@MoserMeadowsRecordsVideo Edited by: https://www.youtube.com/@PuzzleEmptyMhttps://www.youtube.com/@tentinypotatos4851SOCIALS:Puzzle:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@PuzzleEmptyMInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/puzzleemptym/Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/puzzleemptymSean:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@tentinypotatos4851Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/tentinypotatos343Samuel:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@MoserMeadowsRecordsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/samuelclaus2nerTwitch: https://www.twitch.tv/baconsnack6CHAPTERS:(00:00) Intro(01:33) Pre-Gaming(05:48) The Topic(10:35) Round 1 - Applying Rocket Science to TAX PREP?(19:36) Pop Quiz!
