Linux Stardew Valley not starting on Steam Deck

I‘m not able to play Stardew Valley on my Steam Deck. When I start the game it closes in the Most cases before reaching the main menu. In some cases it comes to the main menu but then freezes and closes.

I already reinstalled it several times, tried on internal storage and sd card. I also made a factory reset of the steam deck but the issues still persists.

Is there anyone who had the same issue and has a solution for it?

I can say that on my Steam Deck there are no issues with running the game. I can't tell much about in-game experience because I'm playing solo on Switch and coop on Xbox, and on Steam I bought the game only to support the author, but I just checked few minutes ago after seeing your post and can play without crashes (last patch from 28th December).
https://www.protondb.com/app/413150 - on proton DB I also don't see any issues.
@fry8511 Did you try changing the compatibility mode (game settings in steam library -> properties -> compatibility)? Maybe forcing to use last Proton or Proton experimental would fix the issue? At least for some game in the past it does for me.

Hi JonBovi4,

thank you for your reply.
I already tried all available Proton versions in compatibility mode but I wasn‘t able to play the game.
I only have the issue on steam deck, on PC and Mac it is working fine.
