Guide: Installing AcChen - Tile matching the Arcade way on Linux with Steam Proton

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.

AcChen is a simple to learn, arcade style 'find the matching tile' game. Master the 60 different level and various bonus maps in the single player campaign.
Unlock new levels by beating the clock or play in 'chill mode' without any pressure: no timer, no score just happy tile hunting ( but also no level unlocking ).

Feature list


  • fast arcade style 'find the matching tile' game
  • two game modes: arcade and 'chill' mode
  • 60 levels + various bonus maps
  • 3 different bonus level types: fill the board, spot the match, find the match
  • three relaxing sound tracks
  • Steam Leaderboard
  • 8 unlock-able achievements

Rules


Clear the board by finding two items with identical symbols. The tiles will disappear when you can 'connect' them with a line, which has two or less corners ( right angles ) in it and no other part is blocking the way. Advance to the next level by clearing the board. If you run out of time before you finish a map, you lose.

A map can contain tiles in up to 3 layers. You might combine tiles of different layers. If you pick one tile from the top layer and one from the bottom layer, only tiles on the top layer block the way.

In general: if you pick items from different layers, the upper most selected items layer is used for the search algorithm. Sounds difficult but if you give it a try, you will figure in no time... ;)

Tiles with the same symbol might be located on top of each other. So the fastest pick is not always the best.

Bonus Level


Every 3rd level you play is a bonus level. There are three different types of bonus level:

1.) You start with 4 tiles and have to fill up the map. Every time you remove a pair, 4 new tiles will appear.
2.) Two visible tiles swap its places quickly for several times. Spot the last position.
3.) Classic 'find a matching pair' on the turned deck.

If you manage to complete a bonus level, you receive a 100 point bonus. If the time runs out, you advance to the next level. After finishing a bonus level you receive an extra Hint-Item ( see below ). If you are not up for bonuses, you can skip the bonus level.

Special Items


Solid Tiles
Solid tiles cannot be removed.

Yin Yang
If you pick a pair of Yin Yang the next picked symbol will disappear from the current map. If the Yin Yang is the last pair you pick, you can use this special on the next map.

Time Bonus Item
From time to time animated hourglasses appear on a symbol for a few seconds. If you manage to remove this item you receive 15 extra seconds.

Hint Item
If you need a hint during the game, tap the Hint Item. If available, a matching pair will be selected. It will disappear if you tap on it. After finishing a Bonus Level you receive an extra Hint Item. You can collect up to 3 Hint Items.

Scoring
The first successful pick scores 0 points. The next pick within 3 seconds, scores 4 points, within 5 seconds 2 point. After finishing a level, the remaining time is added to you score.

Highscore and Achievements
AcChen uses Steams Leaderboard - you can share your score with players around the world. Discover the 8 unlock-able achievements.

Game History
In the early 90s I played a game called 'Match It' at the local Arcade - I spent quite some coins on it :o. A few years later three friends and me picked up the game mechanics. We coded a version for the Atari ST and Amiga. The game-play was extended in may ways. It was released under the name 'Sarakon'. The game was programmed in 68k assembler. After I got a NEXTSTATION I did rewrite the game and released it under the name AcChen. Over the time I did also port it to the NintendoDS, iOS and OSX.

Have fun :)
