## Description
A Hangman game where the user has to guess a word by inputting letters. The user only has six tries to guess the word.
The program features:
- Menu UI: interative menu navigation.
- ASCII Art: UI and Hangman ASCII art.
- Class Gamemode: video game and movie words to guess.
- Custom Gamemode: allows for user-defined words.
- Modify Custom Words: allows the user to add, remove, and read from a text file.
- Hint System: to help the user guess a word.
- Score System: track the users overall score of their current run.
## Prerequisites
Before running the program, it's recommended that you have the following:
- C++ compiler (e.g., g++)
- Visual Studio Code (or any code editor of your choice)
- Windows OS (for Windows-specific features)
## Customization
You can customize the program by modifying the default words per category under WordDatabase along with its hint.
Likewise, the user can also add and remove custom words from the 'CustomWords.txt' file.
The ASCII art can also be changed in ASCIIUI and ASCIIHangman.
Feel free to replace the ASCII art with your own designs to create a unique experience.
To help, I used the following ASCII website generators for the ASCII art:
- ASCII Art Archive
- Super Emotes
- Patorjk
