Hey ! I bought a game on steam, but I cannot install it on lutris as it’s not even listed… It’s a windows only game. Is there a way to play it? Am I doing something wrong?

The game is Wednesdays : https://store.steampowered.com/app/2747770/Wednesdays/

Thanks!

    If you don’t see your windows games in steam on Linux you have to enable Settings/Compatibility/‘Enable Steam Play for all other titles’, then just install normally from the Library screen.

      I feel that this setting could be on by default nowadays

    It seems to be working with Pronton

    Install Steam client, log in and download it there. Even if you connect Lutris to you Steam account, AFAIK, the way Lutris launches those is just launching Steam

    Go into the game’s settings in Steam and then set its compatibility to Proton Hotfix. You should then have the option to install it.

    Enable Proton. And check ProtonDB before you run it.

    I have 3-4 older games, like Giants: Citizen Kabuto and Deus Ex that I run separately under Wine, using the default settings.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
