SuperTuxKart 1.5-rc2 released, new Forum, and more !
The SuperTuxKart team is glad to announce that the resources we feared might be lost have now been successfully transferred.
This means in particular a continuity of online services for STK players and access for the team to important tools of outreach.

It's FOSS ☛ This Linux Gaming Distro Uses SD Cards as Game Cartridges (Just Like the 90s)
The retro gaming scene on Linux has been on the up these past few years. What started off as niche projects has evolved into a thriving ecosystem where classic gaming experiences are being revived and relived.
This has given birth to many Linux distributions designed specifically for retro gaming. Projects like Batocera.linux, RetroPie, and Lakka have made it easier than ever to transform any computer into a dedicated retro gaming machine.
Now, a new player has entered the scene with a radically different approach.
Rather than focusing solely on emulation or modern digital distribution (e.g., via Steam), Kazeta aims to recreate the pure simplicity of 1990s console gaming.
