Game Dev Tycoon Cheats

[KitLeong]

I tired this on desktop edition and Steam edition just now, desktop edition works, but Steam edition won’t work. I’m not remember the error message for Steam edition, something like sync…

Click the file Icon to find and open the save that is at Yourcomputersname/appdata/Local/GameDevTycoon/LocalStorage The file is in that folder and it is named file__0.localstorage you select and open it with the SQLite Browser

You open the Browse data tab and go down it till you see Slot_1 the next column next to it you double click and it should open the code is there.

Find and Edit the cash and research points as Batman described click Apply Changes then close it and go to File and save. -Edit:Your company name is usually a little before the cash if that helps you find it.When I did it I changed gameLengthModifier to 10 for my game too so the Nes was released after something like 15 or so years of playing I’m not sure on the exact time anyways I’m still seeing if that eventually kills my save game.

I’m not perfect with these things but that should be all you do when you open the game just load Slot_1. you can try either this method or Batmans whatever works best.

Edit:If you start a new game you will jump right to the second office if you try to train before some of the starter messages finish you will get an error.

This is how it works, if it doesn’t work at your end YOU are probably doing something wrong compared to post. I tryed it out and it actually worked good for me, did it more times, still worked good. Did it with 1.4.3, worked. It’s your fault if it isn’t working and this description of ‘cheating’ is just accurate and valid.

i dont think it works

If you are using notepad ++ people have said it works with the steam version if it doesn’t work you can always go back to the old methods of SQLite Browser that works well too as @LineLiar said.

I think most of the problem is just finding the right save spot between the two versions.

Steam is much easier - You don’t need SQL software at all. Just go to the savegame folder that Steam uses and open up a savegame in something like notepad++ and CTRL+F “Cash”

Really as simple as that.

…\Steam\userdata\ …\239820\remote

ALSO keep in mind Cloud Saves may be a problem on the steam edition they may be what happened to you @KitLeong

I have the game on Steam, tried on Steam files and normal files, didn’t work. Watched a Youtube video on this, followed the instructions, didn’t work. Did this get patched or what?

Edit: Oh sweet jesus, nevermind. Found out why it wasn’t working, and it now works!

Hi there, Thanks for this in depth tutorial. This works quite fine if you follow the instructions to the letter however I have found that with the most recent update this no longer works. If you are having trouble with this there is an easier way! You can download the Cheat Mod by Kristof1104 here. I am not trying to draw attention away from this tutorial but just provide a simpler alternative. Hope this helps Guys!

This was before mod support.

[Thomas]

Yeah I know. I never said it wasnt. I was just giving a heads up to anyone trying to use this.
