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.
The Falling Star is a first-person exploration and narrative-driven walking simulator. Following the mother's last wish, the girl embarks on a journey in a dream to uncover the story of her missing aunt’s past.
The Falling Star is a short, atmospheric first-person narrative adventure set in a fragmented dreamscape. You play as a young girl, journeying through a surreal memory world shaped by grief, love, and unanswered questions. After your mother’s passing, you follow her final wish—to uncover the truth behind your missing Aunt Jiang, and in doing so, begin to understand the family stories left unspoken.
Designed to be completed in around 20–30 minutes, The Falling Star offers a focused, emotionally resonant experience. Perfect for players who enjoy introspective storytelling and atmospheric exploration.
Wander through beautifully crafted environments that blur the line between memory and imagination. From quiet bedrooms to abandoned factories and the remains of a once-bustling town, each area reflects pieces of the past waiting to be pieced together.
Uncover clues hidden in the world—handwritten notes, old objects, and family relics. Light puzzle-solving is used to guide your journey and encourage thoughtful exploration.
Instead of lengthy cutscenes, the narrative unfolds through environmental storytelling. Examine everyday items and listen to the protagonist’s inner thoughts as she reflects on her family’s history.
Accompanied by original gentle music and ambient sound design, the experience invites players to slow down, feel, and remember.
If you appreciate narrative-driven games like What Remains of Edith Finch, Gone Home, or To the Moon, The Falling Star offers a similarly heartfelt tale in a compact and accessible format.
No combat. No time limits. Just you, your memories, and the stars.
Chase the star, while you still can.
