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.
Symphorix is a survivorlike roguelite that blends ambient music with strategic pre-planning (Not a rhythm game). Customize your Core, configure to use recurring musical cues in your favorite songs, and shape your defenses to overcome challenging bullet-hell waves. Let the music be your guide.
Ambient, Music-Infused Strategy: In Symphorix, the song plays out as it will. Instead of racing against time, your focus is on pre-planning the perfect build. Imagine knowing that the c# notes dominate your track – your task is to configure your Core to unleash a barrage of missiles at those moments, without having to chase every beat.
Relaxed Intensity & Deep Customization: Enjoy a gameplay experience that marries the serenity of ambient music with the depth of a survivorlike roguelite. Customize your Core’s nodes and assign distinct attack types to specific musical notes, letting you shape the battlefield before the chaos even begins.
Procedurally Generated, Yet Predictable by Design: While the enemies and bosses emerge from the music’s natural rhythm, their patterns are set by the song’s structure. This means you can study the frequency of key notes – like the recurring c# – and tailor your strategy accordingly.
Evolving Tactics & Synergies: Discover powerful combinations and synergies as your Core’s abilities interact with the musical landscape. With each track, the game invites you to premeditate your moves, turning the experience into a thoughtful, methodical dance of strategy and anticipation.
Custom Tracks & Live Mode: With over 150 original tracks or the option to import your own MP3s, every run offers a unique ambient journey. The game transforms your chosen music into a dynamic, interactive canvas where planning and creativity pave the way to survival.
Core Configuration & Pre-Planning: Before the battle begins, design your Core by assigning notes to its nodes. Whether you choose explosive projectiles or focused beams, the decision is yours – and it’s based on understanding your song's structure, not reacting to each beat.
Serene Yet Challenging Encounters: Face off against procedurally generated enemies and uniquely crafted bosses whose behaviors mirror the flow of the music. Every encounter is a testament to your strategic foresight rather than reflex-driven chaos.
Progressive, Rewarding Gameplay: Earn upgrades and unlock new abilities as you progress, further refining your build for each song. The challenge is to anticipate, adapt, and create a Core that perfectly aligns with the musical journey.
Step into a world where the music is both a backdrop and a blueprint. In Symphorix, every track is a canvas for your strategic genius – a place where you craft your destiny through thoughtful preparation and tactical precision. Embrace the ambient beauty, plan your moves, and let the music guide you to victory.
