Debug Console

Cassete Beasts has a debug console that can be used for testing mods and other gameplay features.

Usage

The console can be enabled (and disabled) with the following cheat:

Keyboard: hold Ctrl and type cheats

Controller: hold LB + RB and press in sequence Left, Up, Right, Up, Down, Left, Down, L3. (For L3, press the left stick in like a button, on a controller that supports this.)

Once enabled, you can show and hide the debug console by pressing F1 on a keyboard, or R3 on a controller. (R3 is when you press the right stick in like a button, on a controller that supports it.)

Enabling the console will mark your save file as cheated, which is visible in the speedrun timer. This won't prevent you from completing the game or getting achievements though.

Be careful with the debug console. You can softlock yourself if you use a command at the wrong time, or modify something you don't understand.

Disabling

Entering the same cheat again disables the console.

Note that having enabled the debug console will be permanently recorded in your save file - the in-game timer will forever say that you have cheated from that point on (for that save file).
