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.
Shape nature your way in a surreal playground of infinite plants and trees. Tweak their recipes, prune or let them flourish, and save your best creations into an ever growing collection.
VERDURE is an odd generator of plants and trees! It is a creative sandbox where you can trim branches and experiment with growth controls.
There is no story or strict objective. VERDURE provides a space for open-ended plant design, whether shaping a small bonsai tree, letting maple branches sprawl freely, or exploring how different settings affect them.
Each plant is generated from a unique recipe that can be customized through more than 20 parameters, including trunk length, branch thickness, foliage density, and color palettes. You can:
Start from a random seed or design your own
Trim and prune branches, or let them grow naturally
Edit combinations of backgrounds, foregrounds, and pots in an instant to suit your composition
Adjust the overall growth speed and hide the interface for a more immersive experience
Maintain a collection of personal favorites across 50+ save slots, with indicative names like ‘Cactus,’ ‘Pine,’ or ‘Sakura’
Decor elements and reactive sounds help establish the game’s surreal atmosphere. Each scene blends simple ASCII-inspired retro designs with modern effects to produce a dreamlike environment for your plants to grow. VERDURE does not aim for realistic plant behavior, but rather a stylized interpretation that emphasizes mood and expression.
All features and decorative options are available from the start.
VERDURE can be enjoyed equally in short, fidget-friendly sessions or over longer periods to gradually expand your collection and refine each plant’s design.
Below are a few examples of gameplay.
