so, is Ghidra like Cheat Engine?
No. Cheat engine scans memory as a program is running, for values of interest to pin (or modify). Allowing you to change behavior.
Ghidra takes a program and unravels the machine code back into assembly and thus, something resembling C code. Allowing you to change behavior.
Cheat Engine doesn’t modify the binary. Ghidra can.
