Hey man, I was bored so I made you a tutorial. In the 5 minutes I played with Porn Empire I only managed to cheat Money, but here is a step-by-step with instructions, and tips for editing the rest. Please let me know if you have success:

Well, now that's mighty kind!
Thanks for bothering!
(In the particular case of PE, changing gold is not an issue, since it has built-in cheats. I was interested on editing skills and attributes, but your tutorial is a huge help since it lets me see how the damned thing is used so I can investigate myself)
Yeah, I see your point here xD
Myself too the first time that I downloaded that back then, I was completely clueless about what to do and how to search for the exact values. I was mostly downloading tables already made (and I'm doing that still now, because for example I can cheat the most basic stuff about money, quantity of items and with RPG games, the value of the health and then when an enemy strikes, search for the value that went down and "fix" that with giving me god mode - mostly with Wolf RPG games because for others, you can just use the editors here and there. And save edit online doesn't actually give a name but just a bunch of "Value13423" and so on and you can't really understand what is what), but like I said in the brackets after following some tutorials I get that some games are easy to search (4bytes, 2bytes, 8bytes) while others instead have their values within the Float, Double and others that are more complex unfortunately. So yeah.. for example I wouldn't seriously know how to, say, search for a "one hit kill" value and "block" like most of the tables have. I probably need to follow other tutorials and try for myself.. but I honestly don't have any desire to do so xD
How curious.
I use SEO precisely because it gives a detailed list of things to cheat; for example, with SfP everything is listed in a column, which each stat, item and detail and their corresponding numbers. You can even edit a pregnancy of what the child is going to be. Note, it can be done too with a text editor, but reading the strings of lines can destroy your eyes.
Same for TiTs for example, or even Free Cities. For RPGmaker games, you need to load the basic save, then the little files that contain the game data.
For example, you load your save, and it gives the basic data (stats mostly) to edit, and valueXXX for items and the rest. If you load the "items" RPG file (not a save, it's the basic game data file), then the values gets read, and you get full data of your items (names and amount). The same goes for flags and other stuff. It makes things rather easy.
The only type of games that give the "value XXX" data, are usually Ren'py games, but -personally- I find easy to identify what does what if you just look at the numbers in-game. For example, if a character has strength 19, dex 17, cha 13, I look for those numbers and if I see them thogether, then you know it's the attribute values.
Also, is pretty easy to spot the flag values because they're 0 (false or off) and 1 (true or on).
What I usually do is to buy a cheap item, or get lots of a easy to farm item (for example). Then I look for that number, to have an idea what values are flags (0, 1), what are items (usually from 0 to 99) and so.
