new System()
Game-specific systems should extend this class.
They typically define a static `requiredComponents` array specifying which
components an entity must have for the system to process it, and an `update` method
containing the system's logic.

requiredComponents
An array of component type names (strings) that an entity must possess
for this system to be interested in processing it.
Derived systems should override this static property.
Example: `static requiredComponents = ["Position", "Velocity"];`
