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.
Make your mouse cursor your own with Playsaurus's Custom Cursor. Swap in custom packs, layer on visual effects like glow, color, and zoom, and bring your desktop to life with animated overlays, applied system-wide or per application.
Personalize your mouse cursor with Playsaurus's Custom Cursor on Steam. Custom Cursor is a cursor changer that lets you replace and enhance your Windows cursor with custom packs, visual effects, and animated overlays, applied system-wide or only to specific applications and games.
Start with Cursor Packs if you want a quick way to change how your cursor looks:
Browse a library of premade cursor bundles included with the app
Import your own .cur and .ani files to build personal packs
Apply cursors system-wide or target a specific application
Preview every cursor state (normal, busy, text, resize, and more) before applying
Switch back to the default Windows cursor at any time
For deeper customization, Custom Cursor provides a set of visual effects you can layer on top of any cursor:
Glow Effect: Add a soft glow around your cursor in any color
Color Effect: Recolor cursors on the fly without editing the source files
Highlight Effect: Draw attention to your cursor with a spotlight ring
Cross Effect: Display crosshair lines across the screen for precise aiming
Zoom Effect: Magnify the area under your cursor
Click Effect: Trigger visual feedback whenever you click, with optional show-on-click-only mode
Special animated bundles powered by a built-in particle engine let your cursor leave trails, sparks, and custom particle effects as you move.

Playsaurus has developed several popular clicker games including Clicker Heroes and Mr. Mine. We are also the Steam publisher of the classic game Cookie Clicker. Custom Cursor is our way of bringing a little more personality to the tool you use every day. Please enjoy!
Notes:
Some effects require the in-game cursor hook and may behave differently per title
Some games draw their cursor in-game, so it can't be replaced directly — use the "Hidden" option to draw a custom cursor on top of it instead
Be careful using in-game effects with anti-cheat protected titles (EAC, BattlEye, Vanguard, VAC) — the DLL hook may get you kicked or banned, and always consult the game's terms of use before enabling effects
Compatible with Windows 10+
