Hiiiiiiii
Again i am reshipping this project because of some minor and major issues. I learned many new things like wokring with inquirer to make better clis and now i think its ready to be re shipped

Also i didnt want to make the frontend because i am not familiar with making UIs on frontend and i thinks its better if you have a pet potato in your terminal instead of your browser taking up all the cpu and ram

Maybe the last devlog of this project. I had submitted and it got rejected because they wanted a easier way to demo so i uploaded and publish my game on Npm

You can try it too using this command >> npm i -g aaloo <<
and then run aaloo
and enjoy with your potato friend

ALso i fixed the issue with readme pointing to some other project readme, no idea how that happened but yeah. Now the project is ready to be reshipped

Hiiiiiiiii
I made this project because I got this idea from No Idea? button on the projects page. Basically, I am not that good in frontend so i made it a cli based game which can be played in terminal.
I learned many things like working with the cli and working with json files like you gotta parse them and use etc.
It has alot of modules file and uses ONLY 1 NPM MODULE and that is inquirer, i also had to learn that to make cool terminal selector.

Anyways, I dont have any future plans for this project and maybe i might improve it a bit after my exams. Basically i am stopping this project because as the new comes, my exams come too. So looks like i need to stop my project. So thats it. I hope yall approve it

Thanks

After a bit of hardwork (not really), I made cli to use potato and feed him and interact. Also I admit that I USED AI but only for those lines (Generated by the github copiloton the side) which are like actions and stuff. Not for the code cuz i only had to connect the modules i made.
Also i used a package to generate a readme template on which i edited and out my images and other details and DONE!

I just completed my project!!!!

I just deleted all the frontend files. Beacuse I HATE FRONTEND. I cant make the aloo webasite. SO i plan on making him into cli. I plan on using two commands, one is aaloo, which opens the aaloo manage where we can interact with him and an aaloo display where we can see the live stats

Added ALOT of handlers like reward handler, hunger handler, energy handler, also made a time handler which gives current time and differnce between two times. I am thinking to first build the core and make the website thing or cli thing after which i will prolly use Hackatime API to reward the potato for how much hours you code

I worked onto first defining what is aaloo ( for anyone who doesnt underdstand what aaloo is , it is basically potato in hindi lqnguage) so i defined that it has some stats such as hunger, mood, current activity etc and i am working on a stats handler module which could provide us stats of the aaloo. SO i think that it is going pretty well. I gotta add some more functions like update stat in the stats.js to use it in the stats.json

I think i will be changing the variables to a global path like ~/.aaloo/ so that you can use it from the terminal and it wont mess up the parts
