The Ultimate Funguys Swarm Cheat Engine Guide (And A Much Easier Alternative)

How do you cheat in Funguys Swarm? To cheat in Funguys Swarm, you can manually attach Cheat Engine to the game’s executable and scan for changing numeric values like your current run XP gems for instant leveling, or your Forest Amber count for meta-progression unlocks. However, because game updates frequently break Cheat Engine tables (.CT files), the safest and easiest alternative is using an auto-updating mod manager like XMODhub, which provides 1-click cheats without requiring any tedious memory scanning.

[Editor’s Note] Look, I get it. We all start Funguys Swarm thinking we’re going to play it completely legit. But after dying to The Fire King or the brutal Egglosseum Champion for the 15th time, or spending hours grinding for Golden Acorns, the fun stops. I’ve been messing with Cheat Engine for years, and trying to isolate the exact memory values for this game’s current patch almost drove me insane. Today, I’m going to show you how to manually hack the values if you want the technical challenge—but I’ll also share the 1-click shortcut I actually use to save my sanity.

1. How to Use Cheat Engine for Funguys Swarm (The Manual Way)

If you want to go the old-school route and find the memory addresses yourself, here is the basic “First Scan/Next Scan” method tailored specifically for this game.

Funguys Swarm is a fast-paced, survivor-style roguelite auto-shooter. Because of the sheer volume of projectiles, flaming minions, and XP gems spawning on screen simultaneously, the game’s memory is constantly updating. Finding the exact address for your stats requires extreme precision. Below is the exact, highly technical 5-step process to isolate and modify your Forest Amber (the premium meta-currency used to unlock new Funguys and pets) without crashing the game engine.

Step 1: Attach Cheat Engine to the Correct Process

First, launch Funguys Swarm and load into the main hub area (the Forest Encampment). Do not start a run yet, as the chaotic bullet-hell mechanics of an active run make memory values fluctuate too rapidly for a beginner scan. Once in the hub, minimize the game and open Cheat Engine. Click the glowing PC icon in the top-left corner of the Cheat Engine interface. Scroll through the process list and select FunguysSwarm.exe. If you are playing the Steam version, ensure you are selecting the main executable and not the Steam overlay process.

Step 2: Perform the Initial Memory Scan (First Scan)

Look at your current Forest Amber count in the top right corner of the Funguys Swarm UI. Let’s assume you have exactly 150 Forest Amber. In Cheat Engine, set the “Value Type” to 4 Bytes. (In most modern PC games, standard whole-number currencies are stored as 4 Byte integers). Type 150 into the “Value” field and click “First Scan”. Cheat Engine will scan your RAM and likely return thousands—if not millions—of memory addresses that currently hold the value of 150. Do not touch any of these yet; changing them randomly will instantly crash Funguys Swarm.

Step 3: Alter the In-Game Value

You now need to force the game to change your Forest Amber count so you can filter out the garbage data. Go back into Funguys Swarm. You have two choices: either spend some Forest Amber on a low-tier pet upgrade, or jump into a quick run, defeat a few of the Fire King’s flaming minions, collect a Forest Amber drop, and immediately extract or die to return to the hub. Let’s say you spent some currency, and your new total is 125 Forest Amber.

Step 4: Execute the Next Scan to Isolate the Address

Alt-tab back to Cheat Engine. Do not click “New Scan.” Instead, change the number in the “Value” box from 150 to your new total: 125. Click the “Next Scan” button. This forces Cheat Engine to look only at the addresses from your First Scan and find the ones that have updated to 125. Your results list on the left should now drop from millions down to a handful of addresses (usually between 1 and 3). If you still have more than 5 addresses, repeat Step 3 and Step 4 until you isolate the single true memory address dictating your currency.

Step 5: Modify and Freeze the Memory Value

Double-click the isolated address in the left pane to bring it down to the active cheat list at the bottom of the Cheat Engine window. Double-click the number under the “Value” column and change it to 999999. Hit enter. When you alt-tab back into Funguys Swarm, your UI should instantly update, allowing you to unlock every hero and forest-crafted weapon in the game. If you want infinite currency that never depletes even when you spend it, click the small box next to the address in Cheat Engine to place a red “X” in it. This “freezes” the value, constantly injecting 999999 into the game’s memory every millisecond.

2. Common CE Errors: Pointers Breaking & Not Attaching

If you are pulling your hair out because CE isn’t working for Funguys Swarm, you aren’t alone. The game’s engine is notoriously stubborn when it comes to memory manipulation. Here is what’s probably happening and how to circumvent the technical roadblocks.

Error: “Cannot attach to process” / Game Crashes:

Funguys Swarm might be using specific engine protections or lightweight anti-tamper mechanisms to prevent basic memory injection, especially since the recent Egglosseum update. When you try to attach standard Cheat Engine, the game detects the intrusion from the default Windows debugger and forcefully terminates the FunguysSwarm.exe process to protect its memory space.

To bypass this, you need to configure Cheat Engine to use a VEH (Vectored Exception Handling) Debugger instead of the default Windows debugger. Go to Cheat Engine’s Settings -> Debugger Options, and check the box for “Use VEH Debugger”. VEH operates on a different architectural level, intercepting exceptions before the game’s internal anti-cheat logic can flag the standard debugging hooks. Additionally, you may need to run Cheat Engine as an Administrator, or even use a compiled, stealth version of Cheat Engine (often referred to as “Undetected CE”) that changes the software’s internal signature to avoid basic blacklist detection by the game’s runtime environment.

The Pointer Problem:

You successfully found the memory address for your health, changed it, and became invincible. You felt like a god. Then, you completed the level, the loading screen popped up, and suddenly you are taking damage again. You look at Cheat Engine, and your saved memory address now displays a random string of garbage numbers like ?? or 3.14e-40. Welcome to the nightmare of dynamic memory allocation (DMA).

Modern game engines do not store your Funguys Swarm health in the same physical RAM location every time you play. Every time you transition between the forest hub and a new roguelike run, the game clears its memory and reallocates data to completely new, randomized addresses. The address 0x1A4B89C that held your health five minutes ago might now be holding the animation data for an angry chicken.

To fix this manually, you have to perform “Pointer Scanning.” This involves finding the static base address of FunguysSwarm.exe and calculating the hexadecimal offsets that point to your health value, no matter where it moves in the RAM. Alternatively, you have to write an AOB (Array of Bytes) injection script using Assembly language to rewrite the game’s code instructions (e.g., changing the SUB EAX, EDX instruction that subtracts your health into a NOP instruction so you never take damage). Writing assembly scripts requires genuine programming knowledge, hours of debugging, and a lot of patience. This is exactly why manual memory editing is a dying art for casual players.

3. The Better Alternative: 1-Click Cheats with XMODhub

Here is the dirty little secret of the modding community: Nobody actually wants to spend two hours updating Cheat Engine tables every time a patch drops. The moment Funguys Swarm updates on Steam—like when they dropped the massive angry chickens expansion—your hard-earned memory addresses shift, your assembly scripts break, and your game crashes to the desktop.

Why XMODhub beats manual CE for Funguys Swarm:

• Zero Hex Codes Needed: Just toggle a beautiful switch on our UI. You don’t need to know the difference between a 4-Byte integer and a Float value.
• Auto-Updating Cloud Tech: When the game patches to balance the new forest-crafted weapons, XMODhub updates its trainer automatically. No more broken scripts or waiting for forum users to upload a new .CT file.
• Premium Features Instant Access:
• Undetected God Mode / Infinite Health (Walk right through the Fire King’s flames).
• Unlimited Forest Amber and Golden Acorns.
• Super Speed & Custom Jump Height for dodging bullet-hell projectiles.
• One-Hit Kills for annoying bosses and massive enemy swarms.

4. Where to Find Safe Funguys Swarm Cheat Tables (.CT)?

If you absolutely insist on using CE, you’ll want a pre-made Cheat Table (.CT file). However, hunting for these files in 2026 is a massive cybersecurity minefield.

Cheat Engine tables are not just simple text files containing memory addresses; they can contain complex Lua scripts. This scripting capability is incredibly powerful for modding Funguys Swarm, but it also means that malicious actors can embed shellcode directly into the .CT file. When you download a random Cheat Table from a sketchy Discord server, an unmoderated Reddit thread, or a shady modding forum, you are taking a massive risk. Executing a malicious Lua script within Cheat Engine can silently download and install RedLine Stealers, RATs (Remote Access Trojans), or XMRig crypto-miners in the background while you are distracted fighting flaming minions.

Furthermore, many “trainers” found on search engines are actually standalone .exe files wrapped in aggressive malware packers. Because game trainers inherently behave like viruses (they inject code into other running processes), your antivirus will flag almost all of them, forcing you to disable your Windows Defender. Disabling your security for an unverified executable from a stranger is a guaranteed way to get your Steam account hijacked or your personal data compromised.

This is exactly why a verified, digitally signed application like XMODhub is the safe choice. XMODhub is rigorously tested, completely transparent, and built by a registered company with a reputation to uphold. You get all the power of Cheat Engine’s memory manipulation without exposing your PC to the dark web’s latest malware variants. If you must use .CT files, only download them from highly reputed sources like the official FearLess Cheat Engine forums, and always inspect the Lua script contents in a text editor before attaching it to Funguys Swarm.

5. Top Memory Values to Edit in Funguys Swarm (Cheat Engine Table Features)

When players hunt for a functional Funguys Swarm cheat engine table, they are usually looking for a specific set of features that bypass the game’s most punishing mechanics. Because roguelites rely heavily on RNG (Random Number Generation) and steep meta-progression curves, editing the right memory values can instantly transform a frustrating grind into an absolute power trip.

If you are building your own table or analyzing a downloaded .CT file, here are the most highly requested cheat features, their underlying memory types, and the risk associated with altering them during an active run.

Best Meta-Progression Upgrades to Hack First

If you prefer a “semi-legit” playthrough where you don’t use God Mode but still want a massive advantage, focusing your Cheat Engine efforts on the hub’s meta-progression is the smartest strategy. By locking your Forest Amber value to 999999, you can immediately purchase the T3 Dash Recovery and Shield Capacity Boost nodes.

These two upgrades drastically alter your survivability in the Egglosseum. Normally, unlocking these requires upwards of 40 hours of repetitive grinding. By injecting these values via a cheat table (or instantly toggling them via XMODhub), you can focus entirely on experimenting with crazy weapon builds rather than worrying about resource management.

6. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use Cheat Engine on the Xbox Game Pass version of Funguys Swarm?

A: Usually, no. Game Pass uses strict UWP (Universal Windows Platform) file encryption and restricted folder permissions that actively block Cheat Engine from attaching to the process. Even if you manage to attach it, the memory offsets are completely different from the Steam version. However, XMODhub is specifically engineered to bypass these restrictions seamlessly, detecting the Game Pass version and applying the correct proprietary memory hooks automatically.

Q: Is it illegal to use Cheat Engine?

A: Modifying data on your own PC for a single-player experience like Funguys Swarm is completely legal. There are no laws against altering the RAM on your personal hardware. Just never bring memory editors into a multiplayer server, as that violates Terms of Service and ruins the experience for others, leading to permanent account bans.

Q: Will using Cheat Engine drop my FPS or slow down my PC?

A: Yes, if used incorrectly. When you perform a “First Scan” for an unknown value in Funguys Swarm, Cheat Engine is actively indexing gigabytes of your system’s RAM. This massive read operation causes CPU bottlenecking and page faults, which will severely stutter your game’s framerate. Furthermore, if you “freeze” too many addresses at once, Cheat Engine operates in an aggressive loop, constantly overwriting memory every few milliseconds. This active freezing creates CPU overhead. Using a streamlined trainer like XMODhub optimizes these injection loops, ensuring your FPS remains stable even when fighting thousands of angry chickens on screen.

Conclusion: Work Smarter, Not Harder

Learning how memory manipulation works in Cheat Engine is a cool flex. Understanding hexadecimal offsets, pointer maps, and assembly injection is a fantastic gateway into computer science and reverse engineering. But let’s be real—when you come home from a long day at work, you just want to spawn in that legendary Spore-Blaster 9000 and wreck some enemies without taking a computer science class.

Why spend 45 minutes digging through hex codes, crashing your game, and losing your roguelike run progress when you can click one button and instantly get God Mode? Funguys Swarm is meant to be a fun, chaotic auto-shooter, not a tedious grind for meta-currency. And the best part? XMODhub supports over 5,000+ PC games. Once you install the app, you can ditch the complicated cheat tables for good and get back to actually enjoying your gaming time.
