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.
In this unique game, you get to see what a two-dimensional world composed of multicolored lines looks like from the perspective of the main character, Linus. Whereas you and I see our 3D world as a series of 2D images, Linus sees his 2D world in one dimension: as a single vertical line!
Welcome to Line Hopper! In this unique game (the first 1st-person 2D platformer ever created), you get to see what a two-dimensional world composed of multicolored lines looks like from the perspective of the main character, Linus. Whereas you and I see our 3D world as a series of 2D images, Linus sees his 2D world in one dimension: as a single vertical line! Piecing together what is going on from his vantage point is challenging at first, but once you've gotten used to it, you'll be surprised how much you are able to see!
Black and purple lines represent every-day obstacles that you can walk on, jump off of, and slide against. Red lines are enemies, and the goal of each level is to reach the green line. When you reach a yellow line, you get to see the full level from a 2D perspective for as long as you remain in contact with it; otherwise, you and Linus are on your own!
Comes with a tool to create your own levels!
(A multiplayer mode for this game is currently under development.)
