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.
Experience Will's complicated story, find a way out of the nightmare of liminal spaces by solving challenging puzzles and avoiding dangerous entities — all this awaits you in "Shifting To The Backrooms".
Unlike most Backrooms co-op adventures, our game focuses on a single-player story campaign.
We understand that multiplayer is fun. but we aim to deliver something fresh:
A deep plot with actual characters.
No clichéd "yellow corridors" — we’ve reimagined Backrooms.
"Shifting To The Backrooms" is a mix of psychological horror and drama game where the protagonist, Will, grappling with family tragedies, discovers the method of "shifting" enabling him to enter dream liminal worlds and escape from his grim reality. However, the dream turns into a nightmare from which Will cannot wake up.
The game will feature:
More than 15 liminal spaces
Unique and abstract levels never seen before in Backrooms games
Complex puzzles, Non-Euclidean spaces
An intriguing story about shifting and parallel universes
A walking simulator with exploration of liminal spaces and puzzle-solving:
Travel through non-Euclidean spaces
Solve abstract and engaging puzzles
Find your way out — avoid and hide from entity monsters
The core of the game is Will’s personal journey, not the "spaces." Liminality and Backrooms are just the stage.
Will, a 15-year-old, battles family turmoil tied to his father, mother, sister, and mother's new friend (all revealed in-game). He seeks peace by "shifting" to safe levels, but dreams morph into an inescapable nightmare. Your task: guide Will to wakefulness. Through dreams, you’ll uncover ways to alter reality and secrets that reshape his family’s fate.
Themes explored:
Shifting, astral projections, transcendental travel
Oneirokinesis (Can thought influence reality through dreams?)
Fear of being trapped in the astral plane, a dream, or an alternate reality
