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.

Short visual novel. A 24-hour romance at its worst; a 24-hour escape at its sweetest.

Mercury Elopement Syndrome is a short visual novel about a romantic escape.

—Is that too short for a game description?
But honestly, that’s pretty much what it is.

So let me try to squeeze out a few more words to pitch it to you.

That said… is it really a good idea to recommend it so proudly?
As you may have noticed from the screenshots and trailers, it contains some rather “extreme” elements.
It’s definitely not pure or innocent. You could call it a cocktail of vices.

But toxic as it may be, I didn’t lay the darkest parts out in full.
In short, it’s not something I can confidently recommend to everyone. At the very least, it carries a certain kind of “toxicity.”

But is being "toxic" always a bad thing?
A calculated dose of poison can sometimes be beneficial.
Take caffeine or capsaicin, for example—biologically, they’re toxins too.

That said, I don’t really want to compare this game to caffeine or capsaicin.
The reason is simple: caffeine does nothing for me—I can chug it and fall straight asleep.
As for capsaicin, I love spicy food, but my stomach refuses to cooperate. It’s tragic, really.

Instead, I’d rather compare it to—late-night McDonald’s fries.
The reason is just as simple: it’s the middle of the night. I’m sitting in a McDonald’s typing this. There’s a half-eaten bag of fries to my left.

If you think about it—pure carbs, deep-fried in sizzling oil—that’s pretty “extreme” from a health perspective, isn’t it?
But they taste so damn good.

But living, at its core, is consumption.
Even when we’re just breathing quietly, our bodies are oxidizing, aging, inching toward death.

Knowing that, I’d rather choose ways of burning myself out that make me happy—ways that feel meaningful, that give me something back. Even if it’s a little extreme. As long as, on this journey, I can burn fast yet slow—exactly the way I choose.

So, that’s the introduction to this story.
It applies inside the story, and outside of it as well.

I hope you’ll like it.
Just like I like McDonald’s fries.

Wait—come to think of it, do I actually like fries?
