the closest i will ever get to making a game easier for myself than dev intended is autoclicking, because if your game is grindy and monotonous enough for me to need an autoclicker, that shit is on you.
I occasionally exploit games.
Not in the 3rd party software or using any kinda script way, specifically and exclusively in the way that you find a really stupid and exploitable feature and push it to its limits.
EX: Valeri in PWNed gains 25% extra max hp for every enemy executed with the final hit of a specific ability. Keep this going for much time at all and you go from 3k hp to 3 million hp because its not 25% of your base hp, its 25% of your current hp.
Hacking games sounds boring and looks boring, exploiting mechanics is and always will be hilarious.
