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.
Open world adventure RPG with multiple classes to choose from, allies to recruit, and a unique turn-based battle system.
**Setting Expectations**
It's important you know what to expect going in so you can know if you want to give the game a try. So here's the negatives that might turn you away.
It still has bugs, sometimes game breaking ones.
There's no story yet.
It's mechanics are still being refined.
Combat balance is being worked on.
The explorable area is still relatively small.
Slow updates (I'm only one man working on it in my free time)
Now, I know it seems all bad and if it's already too much for you then I hope you'll consider giving it a try later on with more updates.
Here's the positives of what you can expect:
Choice between 5 races, male and female, and 8 starting classes.
Each class can choose from 3 vocations (essentially the true class) at level 10 and 2 specializations at level 60. which makes 24 vocations and 48 specializations.
24 followers to find and join your party.
Each class has their own set of skills they can unlock. There's over 400 skills in the game with the minimum a single class having at max level being about 13-14.
11 weapon types. Each weapon type has 20 weapons in it. 4 weapon sets are upgradable up to a +5 and the others to only +1.
An assortment of armors and accessories.
2 cities, a small town, 6 forests, 5 dungeons, & 7 small replayable dungeons.
5 marked quest from the Adventurers Guild & 5 untracked quests on the map.
several more secret areas that I wouldn't consider quests.
At least a few hours of gameplay.
I'm always open to feedback and glitch/bug reports. It helps me make the game better. I'm active on Discord and can more quickly respond to any questions/comments/bug reports. I hope you enjoy the game.
