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.
A space-taxi-sim / open-world-RPG with a seamless transition between planetary and in-space flight set in a large galaxy.
Explore the Kyprei-41 galaxy as a lonely TAXINAUT carrying fares across alien worlds. Descent onto planets and fly over alien cities and landscapes. Land at bars, diners, garages and many other common and exotic locations. Interact with the locals to ask for directions or learn about the many esoteric and often clandestine aspects of the Kyprei-41 galaxy.
RPG and space taxi sim / life sim in one: Lead the life of a working-class astronaut, pilot a spaceship and transport passengers across an open-world galaxy.
Fly both on planets and in space. Seamlessly ascent from a planet into space then fly or warp to another planet and descent to it: no loading screens, no "teleporting".
Over 100,000 star-systems with planets and stations to explore.
A grimy sci-fi / fantasy setting: think Taxi Driver in space.
An optional 30+ hours main story-line and 4 secondary story-lines.
Modify your clone with gongs (an RPG-like skill system).
Unlock equipment and other items for purchase at your home and modify your ship to receive free items every time you sleep.
Various foods, drink & drugs with various effects (e.g. skill-buffs).
Weapons and other items to deal with hostile ships, individuals and creatures.
Completely controllable with just the mouse (one hand free to hold a drink, no keyboard needed) or use a controller with the specially made focus-system.
Relaxing real-time with pause like controls: Mouse-click pauses the game to give you time to think: pick a weapon, pick a target, click again to resume and watch what happens.
13 unique music tracks
An optional tutorial integrated into the game, a manual and over 20 short and to the point videos to help explain things as they come up.
Everything fully handmade over nearly 10 years by a solo dev: no engine and no AI.
Highly moddable if you know or are willing to learn Java.
