Game: Within a Deep Forest
Modifying: Last Ball Used
Goal: Address' Static Pointer
Problem: Can only find initial addresses; can't search pointers.

Fun Fact: The non-static addresses can also change just by going to another area (i.e. going from Pinewood Heights to Menu and back to PH)!

The Process:
1) Boot up Cheat Engine and the game.
2) Go through scanning process. Value types 1/2/4/8 Bytes can be used. When the scan results are narrowed down to three addresses, the second one is what ball was used before dying (at least every time when I did this multiple times). To confirm that it was the right address, I spawn a ball (#3 for example), change the value (i.e. 6), suicide, press Enter (chooses the last ball used), and spawns a ball I didn't previously use (spawns as #6 instead of #3).
3) Try to find what writes and/or accesses this address. Just simply dying and respawning finds the opcode. (Choosing a different ball has the same results.)

Forget about using pointers on this game. Use injection to give you the addresses and manipulate them as you see fit. See table as an example for X/Y coordinates:
