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.
Meet Curtains. An exiled alien clown in search of a home. While passing through a distant galaxy, he was forced to land when his ship's fuel cells ran dry. Now stranded in a far away world, Curtains must find fuel for his ship and return to space... or perhaps another way to continue his journey?
Curtains The Clown is a compact 2D adventure with multiple possible outcomes. Use simple platforming mechanics like wall jumps and double jumping to guide Curtains through a treacherous world in search of a way to continue (or end) his journey. Hidden away in seemingly unreachable places are 6 items that hold the keys to various exits. Find and bring an item to its corresponding NPC/world object to discover what fate will become of our clown friend.
An alien life form who inexplicably resembles a rather scary looking clown. Curtains was exiled from his home planet and forced to find somewhere else to call his own. While passing through a distant galaxy, his ship had run out of fuel, requiring an emergency landing on a nearby planet called Truculentia. Now stranded in a far away world, Curtains must find fuel for his ship and return to space, but perhaps there is another way to continue his journey... or meet his end before it even begins?
Wall jump, double jump, bunny hop and "boost" to navigate the perilous platforming sequences

Featuring music by Said The Dreamer
For the last 30+ years, It has been my dream to make and release my own game. On September 16 2023, I began a learn-as-I-go process for making a 2D game in Unreal Engine using the Curtains character. Curtains The Clown is the result of finally living my dream despite my complete lack of game development knowledge and/or skills. It is my hope that it inspires others to start their own journey and make their own games as well. If a clown like me can do it without any previous experience (or AI,) you can do it too!
I hope you have fun with my humble little game!
