config = None # Option to make the party private or public. # If you don't have any then leave it to None and the stages # will be assigned by default. # see bombsquad_server for details on what you can override # examples (uncomment to use): config = 'My server' # This will be the name of your party, could be anything config = 'teams' # Leave it to teams config = 6 # Number of people you want, max is 8 config = 43210 # port on which the server will be listening # Here you can add the codes for the stages you want to play. This would take around a minute or two.Ĥ) Once all the packages are upgraded, download the Bombsquad Server code.one thing to note here is that for SSH you’ll have to use root as the username.ģ) Run: sudo apt update & sudo apt upgrade.For hostname you can choose any name, I named it bombsquad.Ģ) Once the droplet is created, copy the IP and SSH into it.NOTE: All of this is just recommendation if you want to use your primary key then that is fine as well. For Key management, on Windows you can use PuTTY to store the key and for linux you can install a tool called skm for easy key management.You can follow this to see how to add a SSH key.Īlso it would be nice if you generate a new SSH key instead of using your primary SSH key or a key which you are using for other projects or on github/gitlab. Since I am from India I thought it would be nice if we can have the server in india as well.įor authentication it is recommended that you add a SSH key, if you already don’t have one in your Digital Ocean account.You can select any of the plan even the lowest $5/month plan would work.Here’s how you run Bombsquad on DigitalOcean droplet It is not important to use digitalocean’s droplet you can use any service you want as long as that server is publically accesible. I thought since it need a publically accesible IP it might work if I run it on Digital Ocean’s droplet. For a minute we thought of giving up on this as well and just go back to playing skribbl but I decided to give this one last shot. I kept getting an error saying my port 43210 isn’t accesible from the internet. I was able to forward the port but for some reason the game didn’t work. I followed the steps mentioned in the documentation but it didn’t work. So I decided to tried to host a party on my own machine.įor self hosting there is a great guide written by the author himself which can be found here. But there is an option of running a bombsquad server and then other client can join that game, since this is a server client game. So we decided that we’ll try this but the sad news was that this game no longer supports mutliplayer joining via google account. Bombsquad #īombsquad is a an explosive arcade-style game which is best enjoyed with friends. We were able to understand spyfall and played it for few days but after that we got bored from that as well. Now we tried one game after the other and all of them were very difficult to understand(atleast for us) except Spyfall. I found a website called netgames.io on which there were few games which are supposed to be played when players are in the same room but since we were communicating using VoIP we thought we can play these games. So began the hunt of some other fun game, now I know lot of you might think that there are thousands of game that we all can play on steam or PS4/XBOX but the issue is that none of us have PS4/XBOX and only one of us have steam on their gaming PC so we needed something which was simpler and had an amazing multiplayer gameplay. Now for the first 2 weeks we were totally enjoying our game playing/talking random stuff but after that skribbl became very boring because we were getting lot of repetitive words and our custom words weren’t as funny as they were in the starting. That is when I decided that I should find a way to interact with my friends, other than talking on our telegram group.Īfter some totally unrelated discussion we decided that we should play skribbl at night while we all are on a discord call(for easier communication). In the name of Entertainment I was scrolling through the wormhole of youtube videos until all my suggestions were completely uninteresting to me. I mean I was spending my time either doing my college assignments, that were supposed to be submitted on Google Classroom, or I was just doing various kind of challenges like Pentesterlabs, VMs from Vulnhub. Back Story #įew days into the COVID-19 lockdown and I was already getting bored.
