  • Charles Games (Attentat 1942) sound positive about porting to Linux in their recap

    Ondrej Trhon of Charles Games (Attentat 1942) has written up a blog post on Gamasutra about how things went after setting up an indie studio 13 months ago. Their game was originally released in 2017, so the studio itself wasn't formally created until much later.

  • Selaco is an upcoming GZDoom-powered shooter that looks awesome

    Never one to miss out on a good first-person shooter fuelled by GZDoom, today I came across Selaco and it instantly grabbed my attention for looking awesome. It's an original upcoming shooter (not a Doom mod), inspired by the likes of F.E.A.R.

    "You take on the role of Dawn, a captain of the security force known as ACES, Selaco's first line of defence. With Dawn's promotion to captain, she's been given additional clearances that allow her to dive into the murky past of Selaco.

    But who or what is invading Selaco, and what secrets will Dawn uncover?"

    [...]

    Since it's powered by the open source and cross-platform GZDoom, running it on Linux should be easy. The developer has confirmed Linux will be supported when asked on Twitter too!

  • Isometric city builder Nebuchadnezzar gets a huge update with freeplay maps

    Nebuchadnezzar, the great looking isometric city-builder that's very much like the old Impressions Games titles like Pharaoh and Zeus has a first post-release upgrade out and it's a big one.

    This 1.1 update aims to tackle some of the bigger shortcomings of the initial release. While it is a good game, it's interesting and does give the feel of Pharaoh it was missing certain big things. Added in this update is a whole new freeplay mode with multiple maps to build up however you wish - which is fantastic.

  • How To Install MongoDB on AlmaLinux 9 - idroot

    In this tutorial, we will show you how to install MongoDB on AlmaLinux 9. For those of you who didn’t know, MongoDB is a high-performance, highly scalable document-oriented NoSQL database. Unlike in SQL databases where data is stored in rows and columns inside tables, in MongoDB, data is structured in JSON-like format inside records which are referred to as documents. The open-source attribute of MongoDB as a database software makes it an ideal candidate for almost any database-related project. This article assumes you have at least basic knowledge of Linux, know how to use the shell, and most importantly, you host your site on your own VPS. The installation is quite simple and assumes you are running in the root account, if not you may need to add ‘sudo‘ to the commands to get root privileges. I will show you the step-by-step installation of the MongoDB NoSQL database on AlmaLinux 9. You can follow the same instructions for CentOS and Rocky Linux.

  • Self-host a Ghost Blog With Traefik

    Ghost is a very popular open-source content management system. Started as an alternative to WordPress and it went on to become an alternative to Substack by focusing on membership and newsletter. The creators of Ghost offer managed Pro hosting but it may not fit everyone's budget. Alternatively, you can self-host it on your own cloud servers. On Linux handbook, we already have a guide on deploying Ghost with Docker in a reverse proxy setup. Instead of Ngnix reverse proxy, you can also use another software called Traefik with Docker. It is a popular open-source cloud-native application proxy, API Gateway, Edge-router, and more. I use Traefik to secure my websites using an SSL certificate obtained from Let's Encrypt. Once deployed, Traefik can automatically manage your certificates and their renewals. In this tutorial, I'll share the necessary steps for deploying a Ghost blog with Docker and Traefik.
