In this week's assignment, you will create a hangman command-line game using constructor functions.
The completed game should meet the following criteria:
-
The completed game should be able to receive user input using the
inquirerorpromptnpm packages. -
Feel free to use as many different types of constructor functions as you are able to, but at a minimum, you must create the following constructor functions:
-
Word: Used to create an object representing the current word the user is attempting to guess. This should contain word specific logic and data.
-
Letter: Used for each letter in the current word. Each letter object should either display an underlying character, or a blank placeholder (such as an underscore), depending on whether or not the user has guessed the letter. This should contain letter specific logic and data.
-
You must keep track of the user's remaining guesses and prompt the user if they would like to end the game if none remain.
-
Each constructor function should be in it's own file and be exported and required wherever needed.
-
Look into function prototypes and use them for a few of your constructor's methods.
-
Since this assignment is a command-line application, you don't need to deploy it anywhere. You will, however, be required to upload it to Github.
-
Remember to include a
package.jsonfile containing your project dependencies in your Github repo!
