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.

THE GAME AWARDS invites you, the player, to a behind-the-scenes look at one wannabe indie darling's sordid tryst with game development. Learn what it takes to be an amateur, laugh at jokes, experience plot twists, and join our rookie dev on a rollercoaster ride that's rapidly running out of track.

THE GAME AWARDS is a mockumentary-style genre swapper that cycles between third-person speed-platforming collectathon, third-person hack-n-slash action title, and third-person exploration/adventure game. Expect platforming, collectibles, enemies to be slashed and defeated, vast maps to be explored, and the occasional linear hallway for narrative purposes. With these ingredients, a lone developer—who started learning Unreal Engine four weeks ago—will (try to) deliver you a game fit to win the "best indie game" award at Jeff Keeley's The Game Awards. Not to be confused with that other popular game awards show hosted by a guy whose name starts with a G.

Key features:
- Three distinct game genres and experiences (Platform! Fight! Walk!)
- A smorgasbord of jokes—written jokes, narrated jokes, visual jokes, and even a few good jokes
- A gripping narrative, depending on your familiarity with game development and Norm Macdonald
- Cinematic presentation and minimal HUD elements offer a premium aesthetic to distract from game mechanic simplicity
- Can be beaten in under two hours, for those of you who don't like games that overstay their welcome

Gameplay:
- Again, there's platforming, fighting (with weapons), and walking (with feet). There are only so many ways to rephrase this information. Press buttons, do things.
