# Landscaper ![studio ghibli landscape](https://peakmemory.files.wordpress.com/2014/06/cliufqx.jpg) You'll be creating a simple, terminal game to send messages and receive input from the user. #### Learning Objectives - Putting everything you've learned so far together (arrays, loops, conditionals) #### Prerequisites - JavaScript (arrays, loops, conditionals) --- ## Getting Started 1. Inside of the student_labs directory there is already an `app.js` set up and ready to go! ## Landscaper 1. You are starting a landscaping business, but all you have are your teeth. 1. Using just your teeth, you can spend the day cutting lawns and make $1. You can do this as much as you want.
🔴 Commit your work!
Your commit message should read something like:
"landscaper: user can use teeth to cut grass"
1. At any point, if you are currently using your teeth, you can buy a pair of rusty scissors for $5. You can do this once, assuming you have enough money.
🔴 Commit your work!

## Technical Requirements 1. Your landscaper game *must* run on with no syntax errors 1. If there are errors you can't solve, comment them out and leave a comment above it explaining what is wrong ## Hungry for More? 1. Add the ability to reset the game at any point so that you can play again 1. Make it so that a user can have multiple tools, and money earned each day is increased appropriately (e.g. 2 scissors, and an old-timey push lawnmower means you earn $60/day ) 1. Once you've implemented multiple tools, make it so you can sell tools for half price #### Super duper hungry more?: Landscaper Inspiration 1. Make your terminal game playable via the DOM! 1. Some of our students went above and beyond doing exactly that! See below for some examples:
