How to enable console commands in Repentance

Overview

It’s actually pretty easy, and i also added some problems that you might have when locating the needed files.

Step 1

(If it doesn’t work, try disabling steam cloud)

Press Windows + E and search for the documents folder, then go to a folder called “my games”.

There you might find multiple the binding of isaac folders, you want to open the one called “the binding of isaac repentance”.

Then you need to open a file called options (with notepad ++ or just the normal text editor), you have to search for a text called “EnableDebugConsole=0”.

I think you know what to do next, but if you don’t know, you need to change that 0 to 1.

Here’s the shortcut for the folder (change the “your username” with your pc name):
C:Users”your username”DocumentsMy gamesBinding of Isaac Repentance

Step 2

Now you need to save that file and open the game.

Start a run and you will see that achievements are disabled, that means that the console is active.

Press the hotkey for the console and there you have it, Have fun spawning infinite breakfast.

If you can’t find the files in “My Games” try this

You will need to go to C:Program Files (x86)SteamsteamappscommonThe Binding of Isaac Rebirth or where you installed the game.

There you will find a text document called “savedatapath”, open it and use the shortcut that’s next to a text that says “Save Data Path”.

There you can find the options file and maybe your save files.

Extra Step (credits to Takashi for posting this on the comments)

If you want to get achievements, you will need to start the game with the console active.

Then you can use the commands to give yourself items (i like brimstone, soy milk and libra). You will need to enter another room and then exit to the menu.

Finally you need to disable the console on the options file, then open the game and there you go, you can get all the achievements you want.

OR ….. you can wait for mod support, but i think it’s going to be a while before Edmund adds them.

Extra fact

This is my first guide.

Thank you for reading.
