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.
Make your way through the armies of robots to stop the one responsible! Collect coins to spend in store. Decorate your home. Then try some minigames!
An Army of mercenaries with advanced weaponry is marching across the globe! You must find the one responsible and stop them! You must dodge, and cut!, hazards as you advance. Cross the platforms over pitfalls and collect coins as you move through the level!
Super Dragon Ninja is a simple but challenging game. Lasers move quickly but so do you! The objective is to dodge the hazards and move across the platforms to get to the end of the level. Level timers keep track of your best times! There are collectible coins that you can spend in store for decorations. Then you can use them to decorate your home on the main menu. Through the fishing sign are minigames to play! They also track High scores.
-Dev Notes-
Hi! I am a Learning solo indie dev and this is my first game! It's just a simple game but I wanted to publish it to learn and set everything up. That said I want to make it the best it can be. So if it doesn't look great or it's too short I plan to support it and do lots of updates! I also wanted to publish it because I would like your feedback! It would be very important in making the game better. I am confident in making 2D games now and plan to try 3D soon, I have more games planned! Your support means a lot, thank you.

Levels - I think my main issue is the game is still too short but I plan to add more levels! I would like to know if people think levels are too long or too short. Are they too easy? too hard?
Movement/Camera - I enjoyed the free based movement and camera but I could learn how to change to grid based movement and a middle stationary camera if it feels bad. Tried to make the hitboxes and platforms forgiving to compensate.
Art/Music - I want to improve on the art and music but will keep the same big pixel resolution. I'm not great at it.
Minigames - Added Minigames in the fishing sign, which I planned to add fishing first but it is still a WIP. I am also heavily inspired by old games and even old flash/browser games! (Does anyone remember the Ant game?)
