up, i just tried to edit w/ both lucky patcher and game guardian and neither worked. editing pearls w/ game guardian was only a visual change -- any attempt to spend above what i had would act like it worked, then error out and force restart the game
a lot of the app looks to be server-side, but there's a chance that something like stat boosts can be toggled on, maybe? (speed or agility boosts can be purchased for pearls)
