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.
Build a living kingdom where villagers work and survive on their own. Assign roles, keep your people fed, automate your systems, and defend against growing threats. Your kingdom lives or falls by your decisions.
Kingforge is not just about building — it’s about creating a kingdom that actually lives.

You start with nothing.
Gather resources, place your first structures, and slowly attract villagers to your land.
From there, things begin to grow on their own.
Villagers are not just background characters.
They work, eat, sleep, and make decisions based on their roles.
You can assign them jobs such as farming, woodcutting, building, or guarding.
Each one plays a part in your kingdom’s survival — and if things go wrong, they’ll feel it too.

What begins as survival gradually turns into a functioning system.
You produce food, expand production, build homes, and manage a growing population.
Everything is connected.
A weak link can break the whole chain.
As your kingdom grows, it also becomes a target.
Bandits will start to appear, and the pressure will increase over time.
You’ll need to defend and improve what you’ve built.
Train guards, secure your borders, and make sure your people are ready.

The world itself is fully interactive.
You can shape the land, build however you want, and design your kingdom your own way —
from a small settlement to something much bigger.
There’s no single way to play.
Every decision you make changes how your kingdom develops.
Kingforge is currently in Early Access and still evolving.
New systems, professions, and mechanics are planned for future updates, including mod support.
Your feedback will directly influence the direction of the game.
