Guide: Installing Aloof on Linux with Steam Proton

This guide describes how to use Steam Proton to play and run Windows games on your Linux computer. Some games may not work or may break because Steam Proton is still at a very early stage.


1. Activating Steam Proton for Linux:
Proton is integrated into the Steam Client with "Steam Play." To activate proton, go into your steam client and click on Steam in the upper right corner. Then click on settings to open a new window. From here, click on the Steam Play button at the bottom of the panel. Click "Enable Steam Play for Supported Titles."

Alternatively: Go to Steam > Settings > Steam Play and turn on the "Enable Steam Play for Supported Titles" option.

Valve has tested and fixed some Steam titles and you will now be able to play most of them. However, if you want to go further and play titles that even Valve hasn't tested, toggle the "Enable Steam Play for all titles" option.


2. Choose a version
You should use the Steam Proton version recommended by Steam: 3.7-8. This is the most stable version of Steam Proton at the moment.


3. Restart your Steam
After you have successfully activated Steam Proton, click "OK" and Steam will ask you to restart it for the changes to take effect. Restart it. Your computer will now play all of steam's whitelisted games seamlessly.


4. Launch Stardew Valley on Linux:
Before you can use Steam Proton, you must first download the Stardew Valley Windows game from Steam. When you download Stardew Valley for the first time, you will notice that the download size is slightly larger than the size of the game.
This happens because Steam will download your chosen Steam Proton version with this game as well. After the download is complete, simply click the "Play" button.

Multiplayer modes


Steam is pretty limit when it comes to explaining multiplayer modes.
So, here is (a hopefully better explained) list of multiplayer modes:
  • co-op campaign (offline or via RPT*)
  • friends versus friends (offline or via RPT*)
  • 1v1 online adventure (online against random people)
  • 2v2 online adventure (this is online, but couch vs couch, so you and your friend are on the same couch or play via RPT*)
*RPT = Remote Play Together

COMING SOON: play online versus a friend!
I regret not adding this more early, but I aim to correct that mistake :)
(also know that I am making this game by myself in my spare time)


How to play


Basic gameplay is shown below. Aloof has more tactics - which we will save for later.

Summon an island

Stop you opponent from getting an island

Attack with combos

Heal after an attack








Features

It's dangerous to go alone

  • Full solo or co-op campaign with puzzle levels, matches versus AI, rescue missions and bosses! (offline)
  • Beat the online adventure by defeating 3 opponents in a row, but lose and start all over (online 1v1 or 2v2).
  • Or practice the online adventure against AI opponents, get familiar with the levels and tune your tactics (offline 1v1 or 2v2).
  • Play against your friends in 1v1 or 2v2 matches (offline).

Your plan at your pace

  • Move pieces left, right, down and up! Pieces don't descend by themselves. Take your time to think, and move fast when you can!
  • Not happy with the pieces in your field? Just flush them away by holding the flush button.
  • You can switch between 2 fields. So you don't need to mess up your amazing combo if something else needs to be done first.
  • (and there's no garbage from your opponent)

Keeping online alive

  • Play the game while searching for an online match.
  • Find opponents all over the world. The game is designed for a high ping (600ms)
