The Humble One Special Day Bundle just went live and it has two rather nice native Linux games available. Others may work with Valve's Steam Play.
For the native Linux games, you will be able to grab OlliOlli2: Welcome to Olliwood in the $1 tier which by itself is a pretty great deal. You will also find Surgeon Simulator: Anniversary Edition if you pay more than the average. Not a lot of native titles this time, hopefully their next game bundle will be a step up for us…
For those looking to test some titles in Valve's Steam Play, there's a number of other games included. I checked over the reports on them and it seems Crazy Taxi, Binary Domain and Stronghold Crusader 2 should work reasonably well. As always though, your experience may vary.
The bundle is supporting the UK-based SpecialEffect charity, one that helps people with disabilities enjoy video games so it's a really nice cause too.
Check out the bundle here if you're interested.

If you buy it too, make sure to patch it with the analog patch and the original music patch as described here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=964260789
It works well in Proton with the patch.
For the native Linux games, you will be able to grab OlliOlli2: Welcome to Olliwood in the $1 tierStreets of Rage is a part of SEGA Mega Drive and Genesis Classics which has a Linux version (but only Windows logo on its Steam store page for some reason).
a) a native linux game
b) runs with proton out of the box
c) runs with proton ( with some tricks )
d) is really windows only
(Maybe liamdave can add the results to the main article)
update: according to my tests:
- (++)Crazy Taxi works perfectly with proton: https://spcr.netlify.com/app/71230
- (+)Binary Domain works fine with proton, you just get an error message when you start, just ignore it: https://spcr.netlify.com/app/203750
- (+++)OlliOlli2: Welcome to Olliwood has a linux version
