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.
Why did the beloved game shops of our childhood fade away? Live through 25 years of gaming history (1985–2010) as a shop owner in this management sim.
Remember when every town had a local game shop?
The excitement of new releases. The thrill of the hunt for that one game.
Now you can relive those days—from behind the counter.
"Sunset Game Shop Shayou" is a retro-style casual management sim where you run a video game store through 25 years of gaming history (1985–2010).
"Shayou" means "sunset" or "decline" in Japanese—and that's exactly what you're up against.
With 8-bit sounds and nostalgic pixel art, experience the NES era boom and beyond.
Can you keep your shop alive as the industry transforms around you?
A bittersweet retail management experience
You run a small game shop. Your job? Buy low, sell high, and try not to go bankrupt.

"Eh, I'll only order a few."—and then everyone wants it.
"Wait, WHAT just happened to the industry?!"—yeah, that happens too.
Make tough calls with limited information. Trust your gut. Manage stock and cash flow.
Pile up your guesses and predictions to survive until 2010.

A love letter to the game shops of our childhood
I always dreamed of running a game shop.
The one in my neighborhood was more than a store—it was where I discovered my love for games.
But times changed. Those shops slowly disappeared, and with them, a piece of gaming culture.
Why did they fade away? That question inspired this game.
"Sunset Game Shop Shayou" is my way of preserving those memories.
I hope you'll give it a shot.
