hangman's Issues

Display actual answer when user loses

When user loses, show actual answer

The leader board does not update after game ends

Prevent User from Inputting the Same Answer Multiple Times

The same answer can be submitted multiple times as of now. We could create an array of inputted answers, and use an if-then block to prevent repeated entries.

Read text file into app.js

Need to figure out how to read the text file that an admin uploads, then randomly choose a word to use as the target in the game.

Write User Manual

Write the user manual / documentation for the app. This includes:

• Name of the site
• How to create user or admin account
• How to login as guest, user, or admin
• Capabilities for each type of account
• How to actually play the game

Admin to admin is see-only

Admins can see all users including other admins. While the admin can delete and promote users, they shouldn't be able to delete or promote other admins

Confirmation for deleting, promoting users

For admin, display confirmation message when user is deleted or promoted

Graphical stuff for admin

Eloquently put by Colin

Canvas for Hangman sprites

Figure out how to change from one sprite to the next using HTML canvas (maybe not necessary???) and JavaScript.

Fix sizing of display word element

If word is long, display will go to new line. We can either change font size or adjust width of element to fix this

Remove curse words from the game

"You gotta type something in the damn box." No, sir!

There's no guest feature on the website

We can't forget to allow users to play as guests.

Register confirmation

Display message whenever new user is successfully created

Reformat game page

Make leaderboard smaller/take up less of the page

Under Hangman sprite, order of elements should be:

1. Already guessed letters
2. Number of lives
3. Enter guess
4. Word trying to guess
5. New game??? (or somewhere else idk)
6. Message after user wins or loses??? (not sure about where this should go either)

Have the letters display

Every time the user chooses a letter correctly, that letter should display beneath the hangman canvas.

Write report

Document our process and checkpoints and such. Reference the project description file from class to know what to include.

Display message related to error checking

Right now error messages about user input are only console logged. Need to add html elements to display messages when that happens to user.

We Need To Freeze the Game When the User Dies

Right now the user can continue inputting. Instead, we want a death message to appear with a prominent "New Game" button.

Create admin account

Allow someone to create admin account at login page

Game Instructions

Write instructions for how to play the game to display on the page.

Ideally this is done AFTER finishing the script to play the game
