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.
HeroTail Survivors is a run-based roguelike where your heroes form a living chain. Level up, recruit followers, and stack powerful set bonuses while battling through waves of enemies and unlocking permanent upgrades.
Lead a growing line of heroes through fast-paced roguelike runs inspired by Nimble Quest. You control your hero squad like a living snake, slashing through enemies, collecting coins, and chasing the top of the global leaderboard.
Choose one hero to start your run. Each levelup you’ll recruit one of three new followers, adding them to your tail. Every hero fights automatically with unique attacks and powerful abilities. Mixing different heroes unlocks class set bonuses: Holy improves stuns, Tech spawns more powerups, Soldier increases damage, and many more.
Defeat enemies across different themed biomes — Forest, Castle, Volcano and Ice — each filled with distinct foes and challenges. Between waves, pick one of three upgrades such as extra HP, movement speed, or bonus melee, ranged, or magic damage. Gather coins to purchase permanent upgrades that strengthen all future runs.
Climb the leaderboard, experiment with hero synergies, and build the most unstoppable tail of champions you can imagine. One wrong move, and your whole line falls, so every decision and recruit matters.
FEATURES
