💖 gameconqueror(1) 💖

okay so bestie, this is the manual page for gameconqueror, living in the General Commands Manual section of your friendly neighbourhood Unix docs. pull up a chair, grab a boba, and let's get into it 🧋✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

gameconqueror — it's a GUI for scanmem, and scanmem is a game hacking tool. that's the whole vibe. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

gameconqueror [options] [target-program-pid]

like, you can hand it a pid. you don't have to. we'll get there 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so scanmem is this simple interactive debugging utility for Linux, and what it does is locate the address of a variable inside a running process. no cap. that's its whole thing. 🔥

and like… why would you want that? several reasons, actually, all of them iconic in their own way:

• analysing or modifying a hostile process on a machine that's already been compromised (yeah, it's giving cybersecurity main character energy 👑)
• reverse engineering
• being a "pokefinder" so you can cheat at video games 🎮 (the original manpage said it, not me)

and GameConqueror? it's a GUI for scanmem. it aims to give you more features than scanmem, plus a CheatEngine-like, user-friendly interface. literally the glow-up edition 💖

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

• -v, --version — prints the version and dips. that's it, that's the whole job. bye 👋
• -h, --help — prints a short description of the command line options and exits. your little cheatsheet moment 🗒️
• -s, --search=value — fills the search box with the value you give it. so you don't have to type it yourself, slay 💅
