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.
Desktop Companion lets you add interactive 2D and 3D characters to your screen. Drag them around, resize them, animate them, and even apply gravity. It's a fun, customizable way to make your desktop feel alive — and a little less lonely.
Desktop Companion is a customizable desktop assistant that lets you bring life to your screen. Import your own 2D or 3D models and turn them into interactive companions that live right on your desktop — always within reach, always by your side.
🧍 Custom Models – Add your own 2D gifs or full 3D characters. Whether it's a mascot, a creature, or even yourself – if you can imagine it, you can load it.
🖱️ Mouse Interactions – Drag, throw, and play with your companion directly on your screen. They're fully draggable and responsive to your cursor.
📏 Resizing – Scale your companion up or down with ease. Want a tiny helper or a full-screen presence? It's your choice.
🎞️ Animations – Add life with custom animations. Animate idle states, movements, or reactions — your companion becomes more expressive.
🌍 Gravity & Physics – Enable gravity for fun and realistic motion. Let your model bounce around or fall naturally based on your desktop layout.
Sometimes, it’s just nice to have something on your screen — something that reacts, moves, and reminds you that you’re not alone. Whether you're working, studying, or just relaxing, Desktop Companion gives you a little presence on your desktop — a quiet friend who’s always around.
