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 are a tiny virus, just born into the ruthless ecosystem of a single drop of water. There is no mercy here: billions of microbes are engaged in a constant struggle for existence, and their main enemy is hunger. Your life is measured in seconds on a hunger scale.
Survival in a world under a microscope.
You are a tiny virus, just born into the ruthless ecosystem of a single drop of water. There is no mercy here: billions of microbes are engaged in a constant struggle for existence, and their main enemy is hunger. Your life is measured in seconds on a hunger scale. As soon as it drops to zero, you die forever.
To survive, you need to eat constantly.
Small colorful particles, similar to snowflakes, give you +1 second of life for each one—there are a lot of them, and if you play carefully, you won't go hungry.
Large green organisms are a real trophy: each one gives you +10 seconds at once.
At the bottom of the screen is a biological sensor: it scans everything around you and highlights it in
green — safe, you can eat it,
red — deadly threat.
The world is full of dangers:
— fast predators chase you and kill you at any touch;
— immobile giants stand still, but throw out a long sticky tongue and pull in prey from a long distance;
— neutral microbes do not hunt themselves, but colliding with them is also deadly.
Floating bubbles can be pushed. Sometimes they burst without harm, and sometimes they turn into traps: small prey gets stuck inside, and you can calmly eat them.
You have five powerful abilities that give you a temporary advantage:
Acceleration (key 1) — a lightning-fast dash that allows you to escape any pursuit. The main thing is not to crash into a large enemy at full speed.
Soundwave (key 2) — a powerful impulse that scares away all pursuers around you. Ideal when surrounded.
Brothers (key 3) — you summon four allied fighters. While they are nearby, you become just as strong and can eat anyone. Brothers are very voracious — you need to collect prey before they do.
Spikes (key 4) — you temporarily become the top of the food chain: all microbes flee in panic, and you hunt even former predators.
Dash (left mouse button, 3 charges) — an instant short burst in the selected direction. Each charge regenerates in 45 seconds.
Abilities 1–4 recharge in 1–2 minutes. Special bubbles with letters sometimes appear in the world — they instantly restore the selected ability.
The game keeps track of your points and survival time. The longer you last, the higher your score. With each new stage of evolution, you become larger, change your appearance, and gain new advantages.
After death, the achievements screen opens. If you score more than 1,000 points, your name will be added to the global leaderboard, which can be viewed in the main menu.
The controls are extremely simple: the character moves automatically, you just point the cursor in the direction you want to go.
The game has bright and rich graphics, but you can lower the quality or turn off the sound completely in the settings for maximum comfort.
Virus Brotherhood is a tense arcade game about the eternal struggle for life in a world that we can only see under a microscope. How many seconds can you snatch from this chaos?
