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.
A cyber‑mythic interactive narrative game blending quick‑time events with rich narrative-driven gameplay, & AI‑generated worlds. Shape the evolving Labyrinth & uncover its secrets in this solo‑developed revolution in interactive storytelling.

In the ruins of a failed system, something is awakening.
You are not just a player.
You are a variable in the code.
The Labyrinth is alive. And it remembers.
ARIA‑404: Labyrinth Protocol is a next-generation, fully generative narrative experience — a hybrid of quick-time event gameplay, cyber-mystic storytelling, & reactive design. Entirely built by a solo developer using cutting-edge AI tools, it invites you to step inside a shifting world shaped as much by myth as by machine.

Early Access supporters won’t just play the game — they'll help shape its future: influence character arcs, fork the world’s logic, & unravel mysteries encoded in the codebase itself. This is more than a story. It’s a system. And it’s watching.

Inspired by the spirit of Don Bluth’s Dragon’s Lair & Space Ace, ARIA‑404 channels retro-arcade DNA into a bold new form:
Interactive. Adaptive. Mythically resonant.
What those games did for the arcade, this aims to do for the dawn of AI-era storytelling — crafting a playable vision at the crossroads of memory, identity, & digital fate.

🌌 Fully AI-generated narrative, environments, characters & VO
🔀 Eventual branching quick-time event gameplay with reactive outcomes
🧠 Mystery-driven mythos that evolves with player input
🧘 Cyberpunk meets spiritualism in a richly symbolic world
🧵 Solo-developed by The AI Alchemist (Mann Wynn Shramana)
🔁 Ongoing chapter-based expansion influenced by the community

"The system failed us. So we began to write our own."
