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 have just been trained and certified as a "Time Gamer". Your first task is to travel back in time to the area of the longest running period of continuous human history in the United States. There, you must collect the DNA of extinct animals and important people of the past.
In a one-square-mile area in the United States, evidence has shown that there have been 12,000 years of continuous human habitation. From Native American, to the first European expedition (de Soto), and first backcountry fort and settlement. In this same area, there were battles of both the American Revolution and the American Civil War. This game/simulation recreates the objects and terrain of this history. You are a time gamer. Until now, time gamers were just explorers. The only thing they could bring back from a parallel universe were the memories of their experience. But new methods and technology will allow you to bring back specially designed devices from the future. Your combined universes have been selected so that such a future device may be found. Specifically, you will need to find a DNA sniffer which will allow you to sample and bring back the DNA of extinct life forms. If successful in your mission, these samples will be used to map the DNA history of Earth. This mapping will allow scientists to build and clone the animals of the future.. animals that will be able to survive the growing challenges of our planet.
Features:
Immersive World: From pure native cultures to the first European settlers, you will move through prehistory and through the American Revolution and Civil War, and into the 20th century. But it is an item from the future that is key to mission success.
Soundtrack: Original music written by award winning songwriters for this game. It sets the tone and mood for important scenes and leaves you with memorable melodies.
Historical Narration: As you move around, a narrator will educate you on the true history of each location you enter. You will interact with people of that time. The buildings you encounter have been recreated based on historical documentation and local archaeology work.
Critical Decisions: You must find, identify, and sample, key DNA targets. Some of these may be "hidden". You must always be looking for clues.
Achievements: In addition to DNA targets, you will also have the opportunity to explore and earn many achievements.
