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.
This is a moderately challenging single-player 2D puzzle game with approximately 100 levels. You control your piece to evade or capture other pieces, ultimately reaching the target point. Different pieces follow distinct movement logic. You must deduce these patterns through exploration.
This is a moderately challenging single-player minimalist 2D puzzle game with approximately 100 levels. In the game, you control your piece (an hourglass) to evade or capture other pieces according to game mechanics, ultimately reaching the target point. Different pieces follow distinct movement logic that isn't explicitly revealed - you must deduce these patterns through exploration and observation.
Most levels are grouped in series of 10. Within each series, difficulty gradually increases: earlier levels serve as tutorials for core mechanics, while later levels present greater challenges that may require extended problem-solving.
Although appearing turn-based (with enemy pieces reacting after your moves before awaiting your next action), the game actually operates in real-time. Each piece enters a cooldown period after moving, creating dynamic puzzle scenarios where enemy pieces might execute multiple moves in response to your actions.
While the compact game allows free selection of any level (no progression locks), sequential play is recommended for optimal experience progression.
