Mewgenics Console Commands (2026): Cheat Codes, Gene IDs & Debug Menu

Editor’s Note: Can You Cheat in Mewgenics?

“Mewgenics runs on a Custom C++ Engine built by Tyler Glaiel. Unlike Unity games where you can just install BepInEx, accessing the console here is tricky.

Historically, in Edmund McMillen’s games (like The Binding of Isaac), the console is hidden behind a config file edit. However, messing with raw commands carries a huge risk: Save Corruption. If you spawn an item that conflicts with the game’s logic, you could brick your entire 50-hour house progression. At XMODhub, we recommend using an external memory trainer to modify values safely.”

— Catherine Hu, Roguelike Specialist at XMODhub

Mastering Mewgenics is brutal. One moment you are admiring your 10th-generation “God Cat” with perfect stats, and the next, a random disease or a botched combat encounter wipes out your entire lineage permanently.

Whether you are stuck trying to breed a specific mutation or simply want to experiment in a sandbox environment without the threat of Permadeath, using Mewgenics console commands is a popular way to bypass the punishing difficulty.

However, because the game runs on a custom engine, accessing the developer debug menu isn’t straightforward. Below is the complete guide on how to force the console open, the known command list, and a safer alternative to modify your cats without corrupting your legacy save data.

How to Enable the Console in Mewgenics

To access the debug menu, you typically need to enable it in the configuration file, similar to how it works in The Binding of Isaac: Repentance.

Method (Config File Edit):

  1. Navigate to your save folder: Documents\My Games\Mewgenics\ (or the game’s installation folder).
  2. Look for a file named options.ini oder config.ini.
  3. Open it with Notepad.
  4. Find the line EnableDebugConsole=0 and change it to EnableDebugConsole=1.
  5. Save the file and launch the game.
  6. Presse Tilde (~) oder F1 during gameplay to open the command line.

(Note: If this line does not exist, the developers may have hard-locked the console in the current Release build. In that case, skip to the XMODhub Solution below.)

Liste der wesentlichen Konsolenbefehle

If you manage to open the command line, here are the most useful cheats for survival and breeding.

Survival & Resources

Befehl Wirkung
give_food [amount] Adds cat food to your inventory.
spawn [entity_id] Spawns a specific enemy or item.
debug 1 Enables god mode (invincibility) / reveals the map.
kill Kills all enemies in the current room.
restart Instantly restarts the current run/level.

Breeding & Cats

Befehl Wirkung
mutate [value] Forces a mutation on the selected cat.
heal Fully heals all cats in the party.
add_money [amount] Adds currency for house upgrades.

Mewgenics Item IDs & Gene List

To use the spawn or give commands, you need internal codes. Because Mewgenics uses procedural generation for DNA, specific “Gene IDs” are extremely complex strings.

Common Resource IDs:

  • ID_Food_Standard
  • ID_Furniture_Bed_01
  • ID_Medicine_Cure
Warning on DNA Editing:

You cannot simply type give_cat_perfect_genes. Cat DNA is stored as a complex array of values (Head type, Body type, Tail type, Elemental Affinity). Attempting to guess these IDs via console usually results in a “Glitch Cat” that crashes the game upon viewing its stats.

(Tired of guessing? The XMODhub Trainer has a built-in Visual DNA Editor, allowing you to toggle specific traits like “Long Legs” or “Elemental Resist” from a dropdown menu.)

The Problem: Why Console Commands Break Your Save

Die Verwendung der Entwicklerkonsole ist mit Kosten verbunden:

  • Errungenschaftssperre: Typing cheats usually flags your save file, permanently disabling Steam Achievements for that run.
  • Legacy Corruption: Mewgenics relies on a delicate “Legacy” system. Force-spawning items can break the lineage history, causing future generations to disappear.
  • No Undo Button: Once you type a command, the autosave often triggers immediately. There is no going back.

Die bessere Alternative: XMODhub Trainer (ohne Tippen)

Stop risking your save file with hex codes. XMODhub acts as a visual overlay that bypasses the need for the developer console entirely.

Merkmal Konsolenbefehle XMODhub Trainer

Errungenschaften Disabled (High Risk) Safe (Achievements Work)

FAQ

Q: Can I use console commands on the Steam Deck?

A: Using the keyboard overlay to type ~ commands on Steam Deck is painful and slow. XMODhub runs natively on Steam Deck (via Proton), allowing you to control cheats with a simple button press.

Q: Is there a command to resurrect a dead cat?

A: There is no native console command for resurrection once Permadeath triggers. However, the XMODhub Trainer includes a “Prevent Death” toggle that keeps your cats alive even at 0 HP.

Q: How do I unlock all furniture?

A: Typing individual furniture IDs takes hours. We recommend using the trainer’s “Unlock All Items” feature to instantly populate your house inventory.

Schlussfolgerung: Schlauer schummeln

While classic console commands are nostalgic, they are risky in a complex simulation game like Mewgenics. One wrong digit in a DNA string can ruin generations of breeding.

XMODhub offers a safer, visual, and achievement-friendly way to customize your experience. Breed the ultimate cats, skip the grind, and keep your legacy safe.
