Keeping the above in mind, you can launch Stardew Valley with its own. That aside, the automatically enabled cloud save thing may wipe your game saves in the future. It works just fine, but none of the Steam achievements will be unlocked, nor will Steam be able to count how long you’re been playing. That’s what I did, and it lead to my own downfall. Can I launch Stardew Valley without Steam? Even if you don’t have your Steam Client running in the background, the above URL shortcut assures that it will be started before your game. This in turn will ask Windows to process the URL, which in turn will launch Steam, and the Game ID tells steam which game to launch with. Technically, the Steam Shortcut is not launching a file instead it’s really a “bookmark” with a link to this URL: steam://rungameid/413150 During launch, you should see the familiar Steam Community notification pop up at the bottom right hand screen. Yes! If you let Steam create either a Desktop or a Star t Menu shortcut, it is clever enough to launch Steam first, and then launch the game. That option can be found under the little gear icon on your library page of the game, under Properties – Updates:ĭoes the Steam-created Shortcut run the Steam Client? That way the client will not synchronise any potential old data and wipe out your current one. Alternatively, you can disable the cloud save option in Steam. Which means you’ll either have to NEVER start Steam while playing, or you must make sure Steam has started before you start going to the valley. You can play Stardew Valley without Steam running, but if ever you start it, your saves are lost. It all works rather swimmingly… until I started the Steam Client, at which point the automated cloud save implementation wiped out my Stardew Save – and hence I lost two seasons worth of progress. The Steam Client not running does not stop Stardew Valley from starting, or from running, or from saving. I have it disabled, because I genuinely dislike the idea of daily updates to a service I barely use, and because I’d like to run as little “background crap” on my system as possible (yes Adobe, I’m looking at you). However, I’ve just LOST two days worth of progress because the Steam Client wasn’t running in the background. All works well: Stardew Valley starts and I can play. Shortly after I thought that might have been a good idea and created one by myself and pinned to to my Start Menu. I have the Steam version, and as I often do, I’ve asked Steam to not create a Desktop shortcut for my game. I’ve been playing Stardew Valley for a few days, and I’m enjoying it a lot.
