Crafting a Classic Hangman Game

Crafting a Classic Hangman Game

0%

Hangman is a classic word-guessing game where players aim to uncover a hidden word by suggesting letters within a limited number of attempts. The game progresses with each incorrect guess, drawing parts of a hangman figure, leading to a loss if the figure is completed before the word is fully guessed. In this project, participants will methodically build a digital version of Hangman. We will start by loading a word list from a file, then move on to develop functions for handling guesses, updating the game state, and managing the game's flow, culminating in a complete, playable game.
