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.
SHOCKWAVE TRIGGERS is an arcade high resolution pixel art shmup/shoot'em up, in which you use the power of Shockwaves and a good timing to get the most bonus from your destroyed enemies. It's simple: shoot, dodge, wait and SHOCKWAVE!
In this high resolution arcade vertical shmup, learn how to use the power of Shockwaves to destroy your enemies and also to score the highest points.
You can either charge and release your own massive Shockwave or use the ones released by destroyed enemies to your advantage, timing is the key, just keep in mind, the size of the enemies Shockwave depends on their sizes.


Shockwave Triggers is a pure arcade game, which is thanks to its tight controls, tiny hitboxes for both player and bullets, simple but effective mechanics and the fully customizable support of gamepads, keyboard and arcade sticks.
In Shockwave Triggers, you can cancel most enemy bullets by releasing your Shockwave super attack, or by timing the explosions of enemies, since these do also create their own shockwave when dying. The enemies shockwave's size depends on the enemy's size and it doesn't hard the player.
Not only for attacking, but you can also use Shockwaves to get higher scores, it's all about timing and learning enemies behaviors.
Shockwave Triggers also rewards the player for being risky thanks to its bullets grinding system; getting closer to enemies bullets makes your fire power stronger and also recharges your super attack meter.




Shockwave Triggers is a high resolution vertical pixel art shoot'em up with colorful and sharp visuals. Everything on screen is hand made/painted and all animations are made traditionally frame by frame. As for the art style, the game aims to offer a retro anime look from the beloved 90s.





Also, the game offers a proper Tate mode for player with vertical mounted screens.

Each game has a story, even a super "arcady "vertical shooter has one. In Shockwave Triggers, you have to save your little sister Norah from the WW Empire who kidnaped her. Somehow, they have a certain use for her secret ability in their plans to rain over this post apocalyptic world that relies on crystals to get power.






Although an arcade style game, Shockwave Triggers offer a console like experience thanks to the different features available:
Two different players: Each play has their own playstyle. Amira: is the more traditional shmup player. Collects items and power ups to get stronger. Turbo B: is more of the charge and wait style, he gets stronger by shooting enemies down.

Arcade mode: Play the single player mode and aim for high score on the online leaderboard.
