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.
Silent Edge is a top-down 3D samurai action game with simple, beginner-friendly controls. Slash, dodge, and fire ranged techniques as you clear stylish feudal stages and tense boss battles, with sharp combat and a quiet, atmospheric presentation.
Long ago, this land was protected by sacred sites known as Barrier Temples.
They formed an unseen net of “seals”, built to calm wars and natural disasters.
But after a long age of peace, people gradually forgot their purpose. The temples lost their guardians, and faith withered away.
Now, driven by greed and ambition, a corrupt lord and a neighboring king move to seize these temples one by one.
With the seals broken, the calamities they once contained begin to stir.
Deep in the mountains, a swordsman living in seclusion is visited by a dying temple official
and a mysterious woman wearing a fox mask.
Reluctantly, he takes up his blade once more.
Forgotten temples.
Guardian statues turned against their own shrine.
A foolish lord who sells his own people and land for gold, and the ambitions of a neighboring king.
And behind it all, those who once swore to protect the barrier choosing a different answer.
With a blade wrapped in silence, can you hold together a country that is already starting to fall apart?
【Features】
Top-down 3D samurai action
Fast, sharp samurai combat viewed from above.
Simple controls let you slash, dodge, and fire special attacks with intuitive inputs.
Simple controls that welcome beginners
No complex commands, no heavy button combinations.
The core is clear and accessible: move, evade, melee slash, and ranged “shooting” techniques.
Japanese-style 3D stages
Explore various “Japanese” locations from a top-down perspective,
including the bamboo-filled Eastern Barrier Temple, as well as villages, temples, and castles touched by the spreading disaster.
Living guardian statue: the Niō boss battle
At the first barrier temple, the massive Niō statue that once guarded the gate is taken over and turns into a towering boss.
Wide-range swings and shockwaves challenge you to stay calm, read the attacks, and break through with simple, responsive action.
The legacy of the “Five Swords” and the hidden mastermind
Long ago, the Barrier Temples were defended by the legendary “Five Swords”.
The protagonist is the direct disciple of one of them, a “legendary samurai” who disappeared after a certain incident.
Behind the fall of the barriers lurk a neighboring king, a lord blinded by gold,
and another swordsman deeply connected to the protagonist.
A fox-masked woman leading a quiet story
The “fox-masked woman”, whose existence the protagonist heard about only from his late master, appears as a guide.
She speaks little, showing up in forests, temples, and a land on the verge of collapse to gently push the story forward.
The narrative focuses on brief lines and environmental storytelling rather than long, flashy speeches.
A world built on the aesthetics of silence
Semi-realistic Japanese-style visuals that avoid an overly anime look.
Calm imagery inspired by washi paper, ink, dust, and mist,
where the sound of the wind, the drawing of a blade, and a single slash stand out against the quiet.
True to the name Silent Edge, the game explores a world built around a single, lethal blade in the heart of silence.
