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 day-and-night survival and base-building game featuring stack-based crafting, resource management, and night-time wave defense. Build your settlement by day, defend the firelight by night, and grow your tribe through an ever-shifting cycle of threat and discovery.
Amid the mist-shrouded lands of the ancient wilderness, day and night move in their own relentless rhythm.
Daylight is calm and gentle, like ink flowing across rice paper — everything can be gathered, stacked, crafted, and shaped into the beginnings of a settlement.
But when night descends like a blade, the beast tide rises from the shadows.
The world turns from quiet resource management into raw survival, where positioning, construction, and timing decide whether your tribe endures the night.
Mythic Dawn: Nightfall is a survival strategy game built on stack-based building, light automation, and night-time wave defense.
During the day, you organize resources, expand production, discover new combinations, and strengthen the foundations of your tribe.
When twilight fades, tranquility collapses.
You must send your people to confront the beasts, and defend the last flicker of firelight.
Every stack and craft is a small step toward civilization.
Every night endured is one more breath wrestled back from fate.
• Order and growth by day — gather resources, craft items, manage production chains, and uncover new combinations
• Pressure and survival by night — beast waves, tribal combat, structure defense, and reactive strategy
• Layered progression — characters, buildings, tools, and materials forming an evolving settlement
• Distinctive East-Asian ink-wash aesthetic — light, shadow, mist, and brush strokes shaping mood and tension
• Randomness intertwined with strategy — each run offers new challenges, new materials, and new synergies
• A loop of construction and survival — base-building by day; wave defense at night
When dawn once again touches the mountain peaks, you may find that on this ancient land…
survival itself is a form of cultivation.
