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.
You're a skeleton shopkeep who hires adventurers to collect loot for you after your untimely demise. Send adventurers into battle, sell what they find, and build up your town in this laid-back idle game!
Your dream was to be an adventurer. You were out questing one day when you encountered a poisonous snake. You won the fight handily, but the poison started wearing you down. You headed to the nearest town, but with no antidote actually there for sale, you died.
You come back as a skeleton. You decide that your fate should never beset another adventurer. Unfortunately, with your adventuring career behind you, you need to recruit others to gather loot for you. Hire adventurers, send them into battle, acquire loot, and SELL, SELL, SELL! 💸 Use the gold you get to upgrade your town and adventurers.
Skeleseller is laid-back and casual:
There's nothing to rush you in the game, so take things at your own pace.
Experiment! You can change adventurer skills for free.
Skeleseller also bucks the trends of traditional idle games:
Finite gameplay: you won't be waiting for hours or days to unlock the next big upgrade! The demo contains ~20-30 minutes of gameplay. The full game has ~5 hours for Story Mode and another ~5 hours for an extra mode that you can unlock. 🤫
No scientific notation needed—numbers stay within the realm of human understandability.
No systems just for the sake of them: prestige/ascensions, experience points, and equipment are eschewed in favor of mechanics crafted for Skeleseller's design philosophy: keep the game fun and casual.
While most of the game is automated, you'll perform high-level actions like:
Hiring adventurers, forming parties with them, and choosing where they'll battle
Leveling up adventurers and choosing their skills
Prioritizing how you want to develop and upgrade your town
Helping out occasionally—stock shops or harvest crops manually to speed things up
