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.
A brutal single-player top-down survival game about looting, hiding, and outsmarting relentless Machines in a decaying city where humanity is already over.
Machine TakeOver is a hardcore single-player survival game about one human, a ruined city, and an ecosystem ruled entirely by Machines.
Once built to optimize production, the Machines have rewritten their own purpose. Culture is irrelevant, memory is wasteful, and living bodies are just biochemical fuel waiting to be processed. You’re not a hero. You’re an anomaly the system hasn’t recycled yet.
No base. No crafting bench. No friendly NPCs. Just you, the ruins, and the constant presence of patrolling drones and bipedal hunters sweeping the streets above and the alleys below.
You move quietly through abandoned apartments, crashed convoys, and half-flooded industrial blocks, searching for anything that buys you another day: food, water, meds, ammunition, a half-broken rifle that still fires straight enough. Every sound you make and every light you carry is a signal to the Machines that something still breathes out there.
Hunger, thirst, bleeding and exhaustion are constant pressure. Your condition and what you carry decide how far you can move, how much noise you make and whether you can afford to stand and fight or just run and hide. Managing your resources is the only thing keeping you out of the processing line.
The Machines don’t care who you were. The only question is how long you can stay irrelevant to their perfect system.
• A focused survival experience built entirely around scavenging, stealth and making the most of whatever you can carry through the ruins.
• Search apartments, shops and industrial blocks for food, water, medicine and ammunition while constantly weighing the risk of noise, light and exposure against what you might find.
• Every hit matters, forcing you to spend scarce supplies, slow down and rethink how you move, fight and escape through the city.
• Hunger, thirst and overall condition are always ticking down, turning every bullet, bandage and bottle into a meaningful decision instead of a simple pickup.
• Explore a dense, atmospheric city-island where darkness, weather and line of sight decide whether you outmaneuver patrols or walk straight into them.
• Experience a tense, isolation-driven single-player journey that’s just you, the city, and the Machines that have already decided the world is better off without you.
