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.
Tetris meets Space Invaders – Build your ship block by block while blasting alien swarms. Upgrade weapons, face evolving bosses, and survive the chaos across endless loops.

Build. Dodge. Loop. Something’s coming.
Tenvader is a roguelike arcade shooter where you merge strange blocks to power up your ship and face waves of evolving enemies. Survive long enough, and the universe starts to break — time loops, enemies mutate, and a cosmic force begins to interfere.
Every block you place changes the way you play. Build smart. Fight hard. Try to remember what’s real.
🧱 Merge blocks to evolve your ship
Collect and place block-shaped upgrades on your ship to boost stats, unlock weapons, or trigger powerful effects. Stack the same type of block to grow stronger — or fall apart trying.
🎯 Bullet hell meets puzzle building
Move fast and think faster. Each round combines arcade dodging with quickfire building decisions.
⏳ Time pressure with real consequences
After every wave, you get a block reward — but only if you finish in time. Fail, and the void may punish you with broken or cursed blocks.
🌀 Procedural loops, persistent tension
As you dive deeper into the game’s loops, enemies become more unpredictable, boss fights twist, and the mysterious Overseer begins to watch your every move.
💥 Unique boss encounters
Each boss introduces new mechanics and challenges. In higher loops, they gain new abilities — pushing you to rethink your builds and tactics.
👁️ Lore hidden in fragments
Discover strange messages, events, and stage effects hinting at a larger mystery behind the loop. Who broke the cycle — and can you fix it?
A fresh blend of Tetris-style merging and arcade shooting
A loop-based progression system with growing difficulty and surprise modifiers
Dozens of unique block types with synergies and side effects
Unlockable weapons tied directly to how you build
Hand-crafted pixel art with a cosmic, glitchy vibe
A mysterious narrative that unfolds over multiple runs
Tenvader is part of a larger universe of strange, beautiful games by Rikerat — where nothing is stable, time is a circle, and even your ship might not survive the truth.
Are you ready to enter the loop?
