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, experimental indie game where you figure out who you can trust while home alone. Point, click and chat as you investigate on your new computer in this puzzle mystery.
you are a teenager living in the american pacific northwest, setting up your brand-new computer while home alone. its perfect timing too, since you recently wrecked your phone's screen after dropping it while hiking. meanwhile mom and dad are out in the city, enjoying a sorely needed date (and time off from their jobs). it should’ve been a chill night, but slowly you notice something is... off? before long, you’re stuck trying to figure out what’s going on instead of enjoying your shiny new machine.
my new computer is a short detective/mystery that plays out entirely on your desktop. get set up on your new computer first, then poke around the apps, saved files, and leftover bits of family life that the machine managed to import from whats left of your phone. chat with people at your leisure- but don't forget to check in with mom and dad.
you can say whatever you want, however you want in conversations. there aren’t dialogue options or locked-in paths. if you want to:
get angry and swear at your parents
ramble about how society will never be able to seriously consider pineapple as a pizza topping
sneakily question someone
tell your deepest darkest secret
be there for someone and offer therapeutic conversation
its your game and your choice! you can steer conversations in whatever direction you want. just don't forget... your parent's date night comes to an end whether you like it or not.
arm yourself with valuable information by flipping through chats, photos, and whatever else you find. you’ll need to build your own sense of what matters, because the game doesn’t tell you what counts as a clue. and if you need a break, well there's always Gambit Lite, a chess app that came for free with your new computer. why not get a game of chess in?
the night culminates with one final decision you have to make. do what you can to figure out whats going on, because that moment will arrive whether you're ready or not. something is not what it seems. who can you really trust?
this game was made entirely by one person in their spare time with hard work, sweat, and all those other bodily fluids that they told me to put into games. it’s a short story experience intended for English speakers, usually under an hour. my new computer is replayable; not only are there different endings, but some things even change between runs, making it worth a second play through.
