The classic Half-Life games (and other games with the same engine) had a console and various cheat commands to enter there. Is this the case for Half-Life: Alyx as well?
Are there any cheats in Half-Life: Alyx

Best Answer
Yes, Alyx has the same kind of cheats like the classic Half-Life games.
To enable them, launch the game with the command line arguments
-console -vconsole
("Set Launch Options" in the game properties in Steam). This will allow you to open the console using the ~ key (on an en_US keyboard; if you have a different one try whatever is left of 1).When pressing they key, the console shows up on your screen, not inside VR - so you may want to pause the game (because after all) and take off your VR headset. Inside the console you can type various commands in the text field labelled "Commands".
First of all, you want to run
sv_cheats 1
to enable cheats. Once that's done, the following (and likely more!) cheats are available:god

. God/Buddha mode are toggles, so just run those again.
