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.
You must adjust your squad's positioning in real-time based on the battle situation, allowing members to complement each other's strengths. Every piece of stardust is crucial; it not only enhances your squad's combat power but also influences tactical direction.
A strategy game blending "tactical driving + real-time defense," where you'll become a defense commander. By assembling combat squads and utilizing stardust to adjust tactics, you'll repel external enemies. The placement of each defensive line and the combination of stardust are crucial to humanity's last remaining energy source.
When energy depletion sweeps the globe, "stardust" becomes humanity's only hope—it's both the energy source for survival and the core strength for building defenses. As commander, you'll protect the civilization's hub, the "Future Central Hub," relying on strategy and growth to preserve the last embers amidst waves of enemy invasions.
🔹 Core Gameplay: Deep Integration of Tactics and Defense
As commander, you'll face not only dense enemy assaults but also the tactical challenge of "knowing and utilizing your personnel effectively":
Squad Formation and Combinations: Each member has unique strengths and weaknesses (e.g., adept at melee blocking, precise long-range sniping, and support providing healing and sustain), and their roles are interdependent—without melee tanks, long-range units are vulnerable to surprise attacks; without support, the defense line cannot last. You need to adjust your squad's positioning in real time based on the battle situation, allowing members to complement each other's strengths.
Stardust Dominates Tactical Direction: Every piece of stardust is crucial—it not only enhances squad combat power but also influences tactical direction: defensive stardust reinforces defenses, offensive stardust increases output, and support stardust provides team buffs. Acquiring stardust and creating unique tactics is the core key to clearing levels.
The Urgency of Real-Time Defense: Enemy surprise attacks directly impact the outcome of the battle with the [Future Hub's] health. Once the defense line is breached, civilization is destroyed. Flexible adaptation is essential in battle; every adjustment is a matter of survival.
Permanent Bonuses from Stardust Blessing: At the end of each round, Stardust Blessing descends upon the battlefield, allowing you to choose a character to receive a permanent stat boost. This boost will increase infinitely in subsequent rounds, allowing you to customize your own glorious moment with your favorite character.
🔹 Engaging Core Content
Complete Tactical Experience: Covering multiple levels, from beginner to advanced, gradually unlocking in-depth strategies for stardust combinations and squad command. Growth System: Acquire stardust and resources through battles and collection to strengthen your squad. Every effort yields a satisfying feedback of "soaring combat power + tactical expansion," truly realizing "you reap what you sow."
Easy to Learn & Deeply Explore: Simple controls allow battles to be paused at any time to adjust tactics, making it suitable for short bursts of gameplay. Meanwhile, the random attributes of stardust and diverse member combinations satisfy the research needs of strategy players, allowing them to create their own unique combat style.
