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.
Explore an interconnected world full of platforming challenges in this short metroidvania. Reach new areas by swinging from ceilings, throwing bombs, bouncing off spikes, and more. Examine dozens of artifacts, commune with forgotten gods, and piece together what happened to Auridia.
Auridia is a metroidvania about platforming, secrets, and lore.
You’ll like Auridia if…
You love fluid movement, like swinging from a grappling hook or bouncing off of spikes
You like platforming where you need to chain together moves
You look for secrets in every corner
You're intrigued by what's out-of-reach, and look forward to revisiting areas
You like reading about ancient societies, strange gods, and the pursuit of the unknown
You might not like Auridia if…
You’re looking for combat — there is almost none
You want a longer game — Auridia can be completed in 3-6 hours
You like cutscenes and exposition — Auridia's story is told through artifacts, and you will need to piece together their meaning
You prefer a clear objective at all times. You may get lost in Auridia, and you will need to explore, read through your journal, and look at your map to find the way forward.
In the ruins of Auridia, you will find obstacles you are not prepared for. Mark them on your map, and return when you've learned more. And there's often another way around...
Some challenges make you combine every move you have learned. Think carefully about when you use which ones, because your stamina is limited.
Hidden passages exist throughout Auridia, and there's always a clue for the observant player. Use maps, environmental details, and other abilities to collect every artifact the Auridians left behind.
The Auridians are long gone, but a historian has found his way into the ruins just like you have. Show him artifacts that answer his questions, learn what happened here, and use it to decide the fate of this once-great city.
Six unlockable movement abilities
Platforming challenges that test your mastery of those abilities
Nine interconnected regions
A map showing exactly what your character has seen
A research system to learn Auridian history based on collected artifacts
Over thirty artifacts, each with a piece of Auridian lore
Over fifty shrines that let you upgrade your stamina
Several endings, based on how much you've learned and what you decided to do with that knowledge
