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.
It‘s a beautifully minimalist and fun-filled puzzle adventure. You guide a delicate bubble through the hidden dangers of everyday life. By clicking the mouse to create gentle air currents, you must lead the bubble across rooms filled with unique traps—before it bursts or your limited taps run out.
Hand-drawn style: Soft and cozy visuals create a unique atmosphere.
Intuitive controls: Tap near the bubble to generate a gentle push and control its direction.
Limited taps: Each level restricts the number of taps, so you must plan your moves carefully.
Environmental threats: Stove flames or a sparking hairdryer can instantly burst your bubble.
Dynamic obstacles: Time your moves to cleverly avoid playful animals.
Unexpected aids: A fan in the room might give you a helpful boost.
More challenges: Navigate through bathroom steam, dodge kitchen fires and knife racks—each area presents unique physics-based obstacles.
Casual play: Respawn without limits and take your time planning the best route.
Progressive difficulty: Simple mechanics combined with clever level design—later stages demand precise control and creative solutions.
Stage achievements: Clearing levels unlocks a variety of quirky achievements.
