How to use cheats in Paralives

You can freely use cheats at any point in Paralives by simply opening the cheat console and entering your desired command. There are no initial commands you need to use to activate cheats; instead, you can proceed straight to using them from the start.

The process for opening the cheat console in Paralives looks slightly different depending on your system. Either way, you need to hold down a specific combination of buttons to get it open.

• On Windows, use Ctrl + Shift + C
• On macOS, use Command + Fn/Globe+ F1

The console will then appear on the right side of the screen. Once it’s open, you can type out your desired command and press Enter to apply it. Cheats are not case sensitive, so you don’t have to worry about the case you choose to type them in.
