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.
Mall Ryders is a high-energy arcade adventure where you blaze through a chaotic mall as unforgettable characters, mastering movement, smashing obstacles, and embracing playful destruction. Race, drift, and explore in fast-paced mayhem with quirky style and unmatched momentum.
Step into Mall Ryders, a hyper-chaotic, physics-driven arcade adventure bursting with character, momentum, and style. This isn’t your typical mall run — it’s a wild fusion of drifting energy, dynamic movement, and delightful destruction that rewards creativity and daring play.
Mall Ryders was born from an unlikely but inspired collaboration between experienced indie creators and fresh design minds. By combining fast-paced movement techniques with vibrant world building, the game delivers an experience that feels both familiar and refreshingly new. Expect tight motion, punchy interactions, and the thrill of mastering every corridor and obstacle you encounter.
The core of Mall Ryders lies in the freedom of motion. We solved numerous movement challenges to give players a fluid and responsive experience — dart through narrow corridors, bounce off barriers, and chain momentum in creative ways. Each run feels alive, dynamic, and uniquely yours.
Play as a cast of charmingly silly and memorable characters — from our fearless Boy and his loyal Horse to a relentless Mall Guard and several other colorful personalities. Each character brings their own flair to the chaos, turning every encounter into a laugh-out-loud moment.
Our visual design embraces a playful aesthetic with intentionally simple, expressive visuals that highlight fun over realism. Mall Ryders thrives in its stylized world of breakable objects, lively environments, and immersive mall spaces crafted for fast-paced antics.
High-octane movement: Swift traversal that blends speed, physics, and momentum.
Chaos-ready environments: Smash, slide, crash, and bounce through destructible mall spaces.
Memorable characters: A quirky lineup that adds personality to every run.
Playful style: A world designed for fun, not perfection — bold visuals with a lighthearted tone.
Replayable action: Each session delivers new routes, emergent chaos, and endless possibilities.

From the Developers
Building Mall Ryders was all about solving fun problems and letting creativity lead the way. Whether it was refining movement systems, crafting engaging environments, or bringing characters to life, our goal was to make every run feel exhilarating and every moment memorable. We hope you enjoy sliding, smashing, and drifting your way through the mall as much as we did building it.
