Press Ctrl+F1 on your keyboard to open the cheat console in Paralives. A text input field will appear at the top of the screen where you can type commands. Press Enter to execute a command, and press Escape or Ctrl+F1 again to close the console.
What is the best money cheat in Paralives?
The fastest money cheat is 'Jackpot' which instantly gives $50,000. For a specific amount, use 'PrintMoney [amount]' (e.g., 'PrintMoney 100000' for $100,000). 'MakeItRain' gives $10,000, 'PiggyBank' gives $1,000, and 'Lottery' gives a random amount. You can also use 'SetMoney [amount]' to set your funds to an exact value.
Can you change the time of day with cheats in Paralives?
Yes - use sun position commands: 'DawnSun' for sunrise, 'NoonSun' for midday, 'AfternoonSun' for afternoon, 'DuskSun' for sunset, and 'MidnightSun' for night. Use 'SetSunHour [hour]' for a specific hour, or 'ClearSun' to return to normal day/night cycling.
Are there any easter egg cheats in Paralives?
Yes! Try 'EightBall' to get a fortune-telling response (or '8ball' as a shortcut). The alias 'DoggoIsRich' combines PrintMoney with another hidden command. Type 'Bear' for a surprise. The alias 'cat' will show a cat texture. There is also 'eighteightball' which asks the Eight Ball 8 times in a row.
Are there skill, needs, or relationship cheats in Paralives?
No. The full command list extracted from the Early Access build 1 game files has no cheats for skills, needs, relationships, or aging - only money, display, sun position, and debug commands exist. If a patch adds new commands, this page is updated from the new game files.
