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 short time ago, in a land nearby... An Evil Chef has stolen all of the cookbooks, and is making everyone eat Junk Food. Who can save us!? Max Overeater!! Run through the levels eating the good food and avoiding the bad food. Then battle the Evil Chef.
A short time ago in a land nearby...
An Evil Chef has stolen all of the cookbooks, and is making everyone eat Junk Food.
Who can save us!?
Max Overeater!!
Travel from the tall snow-covered mountains, to the flat brush-filled plains, to the wide open blue lake, to the back alleys filled with garbage cans and bags, and to the kitchen with all of its stainless steel appliances, to pursue the Evil Chef.
Three different side-scroller levels are provided for each location, plus a main overview map showing the progress.
Then battle the Evil Chef in his kitchen to see if Max Overeater can save the day!
Eat the healthy foods, jump over the bad foods, and collect the mints and powerups.
Powerups include an Antacid, Dinner Bell, and a Free Player Life.
Plus a Key to unlock the Chests where the Cookbooks are held captive on the Bonus Levels.
Also break the Cookbooks out of their jail cells.
Crates containing mints can be punched or jumped on, to gain more pickup points.
And jail cells containing trapped cookbooks can be punched or jumped on, to set the cookbooks free.
A bonus map of each location lets you collect more mints and increase your score without having the timer run.
When each level loads, you have a limited time to run from the start location to the end location.
The clock timer counts down as you run. Can you complete the run before the timer expires?
As you get down low in remaining seconds, your player runs slower, you can prevent this by eating the Antacid.
Run past the trail markers that will ding and show you where you will restart if you fail.
Jump up through and onto clouds, run up stacks of tires, and jump over obstacles.
Max will dance when he gets to the end of each trail successfully.
If you have retrieved the dinner bell during that level, it will cut seconds off of your score to complete the level.
Each level has different tasks and different obstacles in different orders that you must figure out how to beat.
Exact jump timing is required to jump over many multi-pickups that are placed beside each other.
It can take some practice to get the timing just right.
If you run out of extra lives, you will lose the game, so be sure to grab every extra life on every map where it is found.
The game design is very cartoon, with custom characters that look like modern animated shows.
The game levels and story are designed to be whimsical.
This game is fun for children from ages 4 and up, including adults who like fun games.
