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.
Idle Deepcore is an incremental mining game where you dig ever deeper, smelt ore into ingots, upgrade your pickaxe and machines, and expand across multiple mines running in parallel to build a vast underground industry.
Idle Deepcore is an incremental mining game about digging ever deeper, expanding your operation, and building an industrial empire beneath the surface.
Start with a simple pickaxe and a single mine. Break blocks, extract raw ore, and turn your first resources into progress. Smelt ore into ingots, invest in stronger tools, unlock new machines, and push your mining network further underground. What begins as a small excavation grows into a multi-mine operation running in parallel, generating resources while you plan your next expansion.
Claim new mining zones across the world map, each with their own terrain and resource potential. Manage several mines at once, improve their efficiency, and decide where to invest for the best long-term output. Upgrade your pickaxe for better manual mining, then transition into increasingly powerful machinery that can extract deeper layers faster and more efficiently.
Ore alone is not enough. Your raw materials must be processed in the smeltery and transformed into valuable ingots used to unlock upgrades, buy furnaces, improve production chains, and develop stronger mining technology. Every layer of progress feeds the next: mine, smelt, upgrade, expand, repeat.
The deeper you go, the more valuable the resources become. Build a network of mines, optimize your production, and push your reach far below the surface. From modest beginnings to a vast underground extraction system, Idle Deepcore is about steady growth, smart investment, and the obsession of digging deeper than ever before.
