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.
Leap, climb, and launch your friends in this chaotic co-op extraction platformer for up to 6 players! Use your drill-wrench to build your way across a vibrant post-apocalyptic world, find replacement parts, and fix broken machines. And if you lose your head, don’t worry: it’s all part of the job.
⬆️ BUILD WITH FRIENDS ⬆️
As FixForce bots, you and up to 5 friends will build towers and paths out of scrap parts, using the structures to climb all over the worksite. Rescue each other when things get hairy, and remember: how high or far you go is limited only by how much scrap you can find.
⬆️ FIND + FIX ⬆️
In each round, you and your team will be dropped near machines in desperate need of repair. Once you’ve found them, use your drill-wrench to scour the site for the perfect replacement parts to get them working again so you can clock out on time. You might even find a few extra odd jobs around to line your pockets...
⬆️ WORKPLACE HAZARDS ⬆️
No job is the same, but they’re all teeming with hazards and violent rogue robots. Keep your eyes peeled so you can protect yourself, your friends, and your precious towers and bridges from their destructive wrath while you finish the job.
⬆️ BUT DON’T LOSE YOUR HEAD ⬆️
FixForce means reliability, and high-risk assignments are your bread and butter. If you take a tumble, slip into the water, or find yourself on the wrong side of a rogue bot, your friends can simply recover your head and snap it onto another body. Good as new!
⬆️ PERKS OF THE JOB ⬆️
The work is relentless, but so is your resolve! Every successful fix lines your bank account, letting you snag new tools to maximise efficiency and tackle even the toughest of challenges in exchange for a few unorthodox updates to your uniform.
Wield the drill-wrench: Use your built-in power tool to fix machines, build towers and bridges to get around, retrieve your friends’ fallen heads, and launch items around.
Extraction loop: Arrive on-site in your utility van, locate the broken machines, find the parts to fix them, and clock out on time!
Manage your battery: Your battery can be used to power all sorts of things on the job, not just you! Just make sure to keep track of it...
Enemies: The dangerous rogue bots lie in wait to undo all your hard work…or even to send you and your friends straight into Emergency Recovery Mode! Stay alert.
Losing your head: Water in your gears or a big fall will trigger your head to pop off for retrieval by your team. Don’t worry: while you wait to be rescued, you can scootch around to make rescue easier.
Different maps: With tons of possible variations for each map, no job is the same!
Proximity chat: Your robot’s facial readout mouths along as you talk to nearby members of your squad.
FixForce is for fans of:
Chaotic co-op games to play with friends like RV There Yet?, Peak, REPO, Content Warning, and Lethal Company.
Classic creative physics games like Portal, Garry's Mod, and Ratchet and Clank
