Welcome to Teenager Economics Simulator, a game where you play the role of a teenager trying to make money in a suburban neighborhood. How To Play: Use your starting money to buy some gasoline, which you can use to mow lawns for money. When you are popular enough (60 reputation), you can help the general store manager's son earn more money with his lemonade stand. Once you have 150 reputation, you can also buy soap and clean dirty windows. Enjoy the game!

A: There is a scoring sprite which goes to each sector (20x20 pixels) of the screen and tests for mowed ground. Q: How do you write versions of the game? A: The first number represents the version; the second represents major updates, the third represents minor updates, and the last one is for very minor changes/tweaks/bug fixes, and I don't mention them. Q: What inspired you to make the game? A: Nothing, actually. I had to make a game for a school project, and the theme was to make an RPG. The original idea was to make a platforming RPG where you kill zombies or something; then it started turning into 'Scratch Cult Simulator' where you would go door-to-door to recruit people to your cult. Then it just turned into this game. Q: When do you update the game? A: I don't update the game at regular intervals, I just update it when I do something and decide to release it. Q: When will you release the full game? A: I will release TES when I think it is ready.
