Over this past month, I have decided to work on numerous projects to both retain my sanity over this summer, contribute to my resume and experience, as well as just stay productive overall. You may have already seen some of these projects released on the Projects page, but I believe one of my most proud projects I'm rolling out (meaning bad apple in .py is now #2) is my very own, self-hosted Sven Co-op Multiplayer Server.
presenting an all new sven coop server... sven.malingen.xyz:38821; featuring: hatsune miky, reimu & marisa from touhou; with love, malingen.xyz
This was inspired by Aqua's Quake 3 Deathmatch server on the lain.wiki Discord Server, to which I am a regular on, found in the #gaming channel. You can find their work here, as well as server details below.

I host a Quake3 Server now u can connect to it via : ```quake.lain.onl``` on port : ```34243``` Rocketjumping is enabled by default without damage penalty. We have cust Cpma and E+ maps! and my favorite game mode InstaGib! Hope u have fun with it! If u dont know how to get Q3Arena just google it or : ||https://archive.org/details/quake-3-arena|| and if ur on linux consider using ioquake3 or Proton to play :3

If you aren't aware, Sven Co-op is a free mod of the original Half-Life released in 1999. Despite its age, its gameplay holds up very well to modern standards in my opinion, and is very modder friendly. The original Half-Life isn't even required to be owned!; all you have to do is download Steam and add Sven Coop to your library.
Currently the only custom map installed is Ressya no tabi - The Train Travel, however I will be installing more later down the line, as well as my own custom lobby map (more on that later). You can view the FastDL file server here. If you'd like to request any maps or addons, please email me at: admin [at] malingen [dot] xyz.

The current (unordered) roadmap is as follows:

The server details:

If you would like to join the community I'm attempting to build, please join us on Modem; If you cannot, please email me and I'll do my best to assist you. Yes, I'd like to do a IRC or XMPP bridge at some point, but not now.
To wrap this up, I'd like to thank all of you for visiting my site. Whether you have somehow been reading and seeing my site since day 1, or you're a new visitor here who's been forwarded here for info, I enjoy having you all here. There is no feeling that is similar to how one feels when someone appreciates your work in an honest way.
