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 chaotic Roguelite Twin-Stick Shooter with a Base Defense Twist. With up to 4 players, explore, become stronger to defend your spaceship and leave this Frk*n planet!
Hey there, little doodads! I’m Mission Ark 182, or M.ark for short. Your favorite space-time vessel!
A quick debriefing: you are my Kritters, my defense robots made in M.ark, and I need you. After an unfortunate accident (which definitely did not happen after consuming ethanol-kerosene), I miserably crashed on this totally unknown planet. The problem? I’ve lost a good number of pieces necessary for navigation.
Explore this planet and find all the useful resources for our escape.
Defend me against all exterior threats that could damage my magnificent hull.
Get stronger and get us out of here!
I think I’ve been clear so far, but since you look like a bunch of goofballs, I'll warn you just in case: I have a time-reversal option. If I feel threatened... poof, a little trip back to the past, and you'll go back to slaughtering those darn monsters!
The advantage is that with the experience and resources from your previous attempts, you can come back much stronger for the next run.
During my programming, I was equipped with a Survival Manual to be used in case of extreme emergency. Here's what it says:
"Launch the Kritter program..." Done.
"Pray and cry..." Well, that part isn't very interesting...
AH! "Send the Kritters to explore the surroundings and retrieve the minerals and artifacts necessary for the conception of defenses." Now that's much more useful!
According to the Manual, we're going to need resources to craft ramparts, turrets, and traps to facilitate our survival. It also advises staying alert, as certain events might occur during exploration: arena fights, bases containing upgrade chests, patrols offering gold and resources... Well, this Manual knows a lot of things!
The Manual also says: "Your exploration time is limited. You will have to return near M.ark before the end of the timer to protect it from the waves of enemies that will seek to destroy it and to prepare your defenses."
It even knows my name!
It seems that the more waves we face, the more enemies there will be, and the stronger they will be, potentially including mini-bosses. It is therefore recommended to properly distribute the work on all fronts and ensure that the enemies do not reach M.ark (that's me).
Thanks for the clarification, Manual...
Between each wave, you will have the choice between several varied rewards, both in quality and effect, capable of making you much more powerful.
This is also your little coffee break: you can upgrade and reinforce defenses, as well as chat with a merchant ready to "exchange his creator for a few coins." He sells upgrades, notably... interesting!
"The time reversal process of the Ark 182 model will activate." I've already told you about that.
We will therefore be sent back to the past with our memories and the most important resources, notably those capable of "exponentially and definitively improving the capacities of the Ark 182 model and its Kritters," unlike the temporary upgrades obtained during the run.
The Kritters will also have the possibility to change model among:
The Defender: Melee specialist, more robust. Make pretty windmills with your sword and turn your enemies into salami.
The Engineer: Fancy a little extraterrestrial barbecue? With their flamethrower and turret, they are perfect for area damage and covering multiple fronts.
The Tracker: The long-range Kritter, specialized in explosives and precision shots! A small mine here, a missile there, and bam, done.
The Ninja: Swift and sharp, he doesn’t hold back. Faster than his peers, he dashes through enemies to lacerate them and rains down kunais from a distance. Simple, clean, and lethal.
And more to come...
The Manual stops there. It doesn't seem to indicate any other steps... Nevertheless, it offers us "its most sincere condolences" and "will report the loss of you and the Kritters to your families." Nice of it!
Ready, Kritters? TO YOUR POSITIONS!
