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 2D narrative game where your choices change everything, interspersed with 3D naval battles full of chaos, strategy, and... thunderous cannons! ⚓💥 WISHLIST NOW!
Freedom & Glory aims to combine adventure, multiple choices, and historical storytelling:
Rather than following a textbook script, Freedom & Glory presents history as a dynamic, branching experience.
The player takes on the role of a ship captain navigating through decisive historical moments, managing both crew and moral choices.
Narrative choices: multiple paths available depending on the player’s decisions.
Quests and progression: version 0.1.4, as mentioned by the developers, includes 10–15 minutes of gameplay, 6 quests, and 3 secondary characters. A three-part story with multiple possible paths.
Features: auto-save system, customization (character/ship name), improved tutorial are listed in version 0.1.5.
Development state: the historical context and environment (ship, island, crew) are still under visual/technical development.
The game positions itself as “a unique interactive experience that blends: a deep narrative RPG where every dialogue and choice impacts your …” according to its Ulule page.
The studio indicates its intention to go beyond traditional “edutainment”: a game that not only informs but truly immerses players in history.
The rich narrative and multiple branching choices provide strong replayability (different paths depending on decisions).
The historical theme is quite rare in indie narrative games, which makes it stand out.
Being developed by a French independent studio (Pillow Interactive) adds a handcrafted, authentic dimension.
