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.
Cast out of your rightful farm, you’ll scrape, scheme, and rebuild your way to power in this short, satirical farming sim about ambition and payback.
Bitter Harvest is a narrative-driven farming sim offering an 5-8 hour single-player campaign shaped by relationships, moral choices, and branching endgame outcomes.
Your dream of owning a farm falls apart the moment you arrive in the village. The land has already been claimed, and the only job left is collecting the town’s garbage. With nothing but determination, you begin piecing together a new life from what others throw away.
Bitter Harvest is a 2D farming simulation about ambition, reinvention, and quiet revenge. Earn money through crafting, farming, and odd jobs as you climb from the bottom of the social ladder. Build relationships with the townsfolk, uncover their secrets, and decide how far you’re willing to go to take back what was stolen.
Will you work honestly, use what you learn about others to your advantage, or bend the town’s trust to get ahead? Your actions shape your reputation, your relationships, and the kind of ending you receive.
