Stardew Valley is really lightweight and Linux native.
Since you mentioned battery being an issue and that you just switched to Linux, have you looked into using TLP or Powertop to try doing some tweaks to squeeze out a bit more? It's been years since I've used Linux on a laptop, but that's what I used.
I played Stardew Valley on Switch, but I cannot recommend it enough. One of the best games I've every played.
Never actually heard of those software until now. I looked it up and found out something about TLP having default settings---does this mean once I install it, I don't have to touch it again? Or do I have to do something like go into a terminal and install default settings after I install it?
I installed it, I just don't know what the next step is.
Pretty much! The Arch Wiki has some decent documentation on it (despite the name, aside from package names, it's pretty much distro agnostic these days)
Came here to recommend the same thing. It's very lower-end hardware friendly, and is such a satisfying (and calming) game.
