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 fast turn-based, grid-based hack and slash Dungeon Crawler in an Open World with many towns, caves, and dungeons to visit or raid. Go solo or lead your warband of allies or monsters. Engage in brutal combat with realistic armor layers protecting against crippling body part damage.
Dungeons and Warbands is a unique single-player Dungeon Crawler game with RPG elements that blends the tactical depth of grid-based, turn-based combat with the open-ended freedom of a world exploration game. Be a mercenary or leader of a warband, you are free to carve your own destiny and reshape the world in a low-fantasy medieval Open World.
Your path is your own. Explore a vast world featuring numerous kingdoms, settlements, ancient ruins, and hidden caves. But you don't have to face it alone. Recruit a diverse Warband of companions, ranging from loyal knights and treacherous bandits to non-human allies like goblins and minotaurs. Once you conquer a dungeon, maybe you can use the place to hire your new allies among the subjugated inhabitants.
Experience fast-paced, fluid turn-based combat on a tactical grid, where every move and attack is vital. Inspired by classic top-down RPGs, combat is punishing and realistic:
Localized Body Damage: Every blow has consequences. Damage is applied to specific body parts, leading to crippling injuries that affect performance until healed.
Realistic Layered Armor:
Gear protection goes deep. Equip your character and companions with layered armor like cloth, gambeson, chainmail, and plate where each layer and piece protects specific body parts, forcing you to think strategically about defense.
Wearing a steel cuirass protects the chest well, but what about neck? Because getting a deady hit to neck, head or chest can be fatal, so you need to consider geometry or effectiveness of each armor layer well.
Defense by Damage Type: Each armor layer offers distinct resistance values against the three primary damage types: Slashing, Piercing, and Blunt. A chainmail might excel at stopping a slashing attack but less effective against blunt force. This forces you to anticipate enemy weapon types and manage your defensive layers accordingly to mitigate damage effectively.
Your character's and companions' combat effectiveness is defined by deep, diverse Skill Trees. Customize your play style with abilities ranging from essential party management—like Healing and Commanding companions to Hold, Follow, or Attack—to specialized combat techniques like Riposte and Cleave. When the timing is right, activate a skill for devastating results: shift your tactical balance with Offensive or Defensive Stances, or use the signature Charge skill, launching you across the grid to deliver a brutal, momentum-fueled hit that can instantly decide a fight.
Gain full control over the battlefield by leveraging skill trees that offer both utility and direct combat power. From managing your party with Command skills (Hold, Follow, Attack, Wait) to sustaining yourself with Healing, you choose how you fight: stand firm with a Defensive Stance or press the advantage with an Offensive Stance. For high-impact moments, Riposte and Cleave and other skills are at your disposal. Or maybe Charge at enemies from distance, perfect for finishing off a monster.
The Open World map is fraught with peril and opportunity. Beyond raiding deadly Dungeons or Caves for valuable loot, you will encounter roaming enemy warbands and engage in open-ground battles across forests and meadows. Take on quests, trade goods between settlements, and gather the wealth and reputation needed to forge your legend.
