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 surreal slice-of-life about a mysterious computer virus and its effects on the city you live in. Navigate day-to-day decisions, fall in love with your coworker, and alienate your customers by being rude in this dystopian desert ring-‘em-up — featuring graphics created with a Game Boy Camera!
You are the Clerk, the team leader at 8-Fifteen location #97433213. Your job is to run a small station just outside of Divinity City, a megacity with all sorts of strange inhabitants. One night, when everything seems to be going as it should, a mysterious update appears on your computer - causing trouble for you and your coworker, Sam (as if your work days weren't hard enough).
As the week goes on and the Update Virus “upgrades” your system, you’ll make decisions that steer the course of the story and affect both Sam and yourself. If you’re lucky, you’ll both make it out with your lives… and maybe a deeper relationship than you were expecting. Gain insight into your customers' personal lives (and how the Update Virus has affected them) through conversations, and treat them with kindness or rudeness to influence how they feel about you. If you're not careful, some people might not come back - including Sam!
Gas Station Story features a variety of different gameplay mechanics that you will experience - the Overworld, the Point-of-Sale, the Dialogue, and the Mini-Games.
The Overworld is the main area of the game that you will be able to explore. There are shelves and coolers with unique descriptions for each day of the story, small tasks to accomplish at the start and end of each shift, interactions with Sam, and the occasional secret encounter.
The Point-of-Sale system is how you will ring up your customers. There are item buttons that correlate to the prices of the items your customers will be purchasing, as well as a pump selector. This section is technically a working calculator, albeit with less actual math functions. There are also a handful of advanced functions that will make the checkout experience go faster, but not without some consequence! Using the advanced functions will lower your Employee Productivity Score, which means the Boss is more likely to come by and criticize your work.
These are the Character Portraits, created with a Game Boy Camera! You will often be given the chance to ask your customers questions about their lives and experiences - or to answer their questions with your outlook. Be warned: some customers might not return if you're rude to them!
There are several unique In-Game Mini-Games that the Clerk will need to complete in order to finish their shift - from a speedy round of Stocking, to miniature Turn-Based Combat encounters, and even Adventure-style puzzles. As the story progresses, so does the complexity of each mini-game - and some of them have secret sidequests that can affect the real world!
