This simple game is my first project built using C++, and I used it to familiarise myself with the basics and to begin to explore the huge potential within the language.
My hangman game features a menu-based system that allows the player to view instructions, quit, and play the game, as well as offering different difficulty modes to suit everybody (I even added a random difficulty for the indecisive!). I attempted to create a visually appealing interface that would also contain all the information a player would need- within the confines of a console application. I went through several iterations and technical adjustments to get the display to work and look exactly as I wanted it to.
For the coding side of the project, I wanted to create a modular system that included several functions I could reuse elsewhere. I managed to develop a few of these, and employed multi-file techniques to help me manage my code efficiently throughout the entire project. This program was written as part of a university assignment during my first semester.
