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.
"Twelve Shadows" is a hardcore Boss Rush action game set in an Eastern dark mythology. Players take on the role as "WuMing," challenging twelve bosses and exploring a unique Chinese-style world inspired by the twelve zodiac signs. Each adventure is a test of courage and wisdom
Background story:
At the beginning of time, when heaven and earth split apart, the pure essence rose to form the sky, while the heavy essence sank to become the earth.
Mount Buzhou stood tall like a massive pillar, connecting the heavens above and the deep abyss below, supporting all life in between.
One day, disaster struck suddenly. The balance between purity and heaviness was disrupted, and the mountain began to collapse.
In this moment of crisis, the Twelve Spirit Forms sacrificed their souls to act as pillars, preventing the great mountain from falling.
But over time, the heavy essence that had formed the "Shadow Erosion" began to secretly turn against its creators…
The blindly devout clung to promises long forgotten,
The lost and vengeful burned with rage for enemies that no longer existed,
And those who sought to outwit fate found themselves trapped in an endless cycle of their own making…
You awaken from nothingness, nameless and formless, armed with only a single sword.
Deep within your mind, a faint voice whispers:
"Destroy the corrupted forms and reunite the power of the Twelve Spirit Forms—this is the only way to save the world."
But the real truth behind it all remains unclear…
Core Gameplay
1. Shadow Shard System and Shadow Invocation
Shadow Shard Absorption:
In the game, each Boss leaves behind a "Shadow Shard" upon defeat, symbolizing their obsession and power. When you defeat a Boss, its Shadow Shard merges with your soul. By activating these shards, you gain entirely new abilities, adding more depth to your combat arsenal.
Shadow Invocation Spells:
During battles, you can use Shadow Strike attacks to steal spirit cores from Bosses, allowing you to unleash powerful Shadow Invocation spells. These spells not only deal massive damage but also have the potential to turn the tide of battle in critical moments. If you activate the corresponding Shadow Shard of the fallen Boss, the power of the Shadow Invocation is greatly enhanced, giving you an edge in combat.
Combo Awakening:
By combining multiple Shadow Shards, you unlock even more powerful combo skills. Different shard combinations produce vastly different effects, encouraging players to experiment with diverse combat strategies and discover their own unique fighting style.
2. Boss Battle Design
12 Epic Boss Battles:
Each Boss features unique move sets and multi-stage transformations, creating intense and layered combat experiences with a fast-paced rhythm.
Observe-Counter-Attack:
Every battle is like a dynamic chess match, where you must quickly analyze the enemy’s behavior patterns, find ways to counter them, and react within moments to turn the tables in your favor.
3. Story and Exploration
Echoes of the Shadow:
After absorbing a Boss's Shadow Shard, their Echoes of the Shadow will appear in your world. These echoes are like fragments of their souls, carrying the obsessions and inner secrets of each Boss. By interacting with these echoes, you will gradually uncover their stories and piece together the truth of the world, ultimately confronting the deeper mysteries hidden behind the cycle of fate.
