In light of these concerns, Valve announced a strict anti-cheat system necessary to combat such a growing problem. On the game’s official Discord server, developer Yoshi announced that they have been working hard on another piece of software.
The idea here, of course, is to prevent others from cheating and allow for a level playing field. Yoshi also addressed an issue somebody on the forums asked about, that players can bind multiple actions to one key and he replied with “Our plan is to confine those in the not so distant future, once we have as many legitimate uses as people have added to the settings menu.”
