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.

VALDIS is a thrilling blend of third-person shooter and tower defense, where you must protect the Laboratory Core from relentless waves of mutants. Strategically place turrets, build barriers, and uncover the tragic backstory of creatures transformed by scientific experiments. The battle for freedom begins now!
An unknown virus has broken out on the Valdis space research station, turning the crew into mindless zombies. By a stroke of luck, you—the protagonist—have avoided infection. But there's no time to celebrate; the zombies are overtaking the station, and only you can stop them. Your sole chance of survival lies in defending the energy cores—the last power source keeping the station from destruction. Fortunately, you're not alone. You have access to a powerful arsenal of defensive turrets, each capable of reducing enemies to ashes. Use and combine them wisely to halt the impending nightmare.
VALDIS offers an explosive mix of tower defense and third-person shooter genres, delivering dynamic and strategic gameplay. Defend the energy core against increasing hordes of diverse zombies: from ordinary brain-eaters to kamikazes and invisible foes. Utilize various turret types—blaster, laser, mortar, and more. Strategically combine them to obliterate the undead! If the defense falters and zombies break through, you always have a last resort—a powerful shotgun ready to eliminate any who dare approach.
All turrets possess one of four elements: fire, ice, lightning, or water. Each hit imbues enemies with its element, causing unique effects: ice charges freeze zombies, slowing them down, while lightning bolts arc through crowds, striking multiple foes. But that's not all! Elements can interact, creating even more devastating reactions. Combine fire and lightning to turn a zombie into a living bomb, exploding and engulfing everything nearby in flames. Experiment with elemental and turret combinations to efficiently dispatch enemies.
