What Game Cheetah is

Game Cheetah is a desktop tool for finding and changing values in running games on Linux, macOS, and Windows. Searches can target integers, floating-point values, strings, UTF-16 strings, byte arrays, or unknown values, then be refined to narrow the results. You can edit found values, freeze one value or a full result set, and inspect or change memory in a hex and ASCII view. The project presents it for offline single-player games, debugging, reverse engineering, game modding, and educational work—not online or multiplayer cheating. Cheat tables, address editing, and pointer scanning are experimental options that must be enabled in settings and are off by default. Saved addresses and pointer chains can refer to the wrong object after a restart, so check targets before changing or freezing them. The maker also warns that modifying another process can cause a crash or unpredictable behavior. Linux process access may be restricted by operating-system settings. Game Cheetah is open source under the Apache License 2.0.
