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.
Act as the steward for the Battle Beants in this retro-synthwave colony sim. Fight the Void using a physics-based soccer combat system, spread music and light to empower your squad, and traverse rugged alien rim worlds with rocket boot, your beant companions, and by surfing on your drones.
Welcome to the Rim, where neon sunsets meet chaotic survival. Battle Beants is a unique fusion of third-person action, colony simulation, and arcade sports, inspired by the emergent complexity of Conway’s Game of Life.
STEWARD THE COLONY You don’t just build a base; you protect a living ecosystem. You act as the steward for the "Beants" (a hybrid of beats, beans, bees, and ants) whose ultimate goal is to spread light and life through the solar system. Watch as your colony bifurcates and reproduces, automatically assigning themselves to roles like Gatherers, Settlers, and Traders to connect isolated worlds.
COMBAT EVOLVED: SOCCER WARFARE Forget standard gunplay—master the art of Soccer Combat.
Turn the battlefield into a pitch by triggering "Soccer Mode," where your squad treats speakers as goals.
Utilize a physics-based combat system where you kick a glowing ball to strike enemies.
Use your Magnet Tool to pull the ball to you or launch it forward to drill through terrain and foes.
LIGHT THE NIGHT In the darkness of the Void, light is life.
Defend against waves of shadowy drone enemies that are attracted to every light in the system when night falls.
Harness the power of music: place speakers to buff your soccer ball and provide speed boosts to Beants within range.
Spread sound and light to push back the Void and help your colony survive.
TRAVERSAL & EXPLORATION The worlds are rugged, but you have the tools to conquer them.
Master high-speed movement with Rocket Boots, Wall Running, and Drone Surfing
Use a Grapple Hook to pull yourself toward walls or yank enemies into combat range.
Travel through a 3D network of interconnected worlds and portals, managing resources across different environments.
