About

Usage

Features

HangMan Game has multiple features that make the game more difficult. The first feature is the secret, the secret is the word that the player must find:

Another feature is the conveyer, the conveyer will circle around with unorganized characters. The direction that the conveyer will spin is indicated by the colored arrows to the left of the conveyer. The conveyer needs money to run, if there is no money, the conveyer will turn off. The conveyer can also be turned on and off at will. The speed and direction of the conveyer can also be controlled. The selection box in the middle of the conveyer indicates what character will be sent to the buffer:

Another feature is the buffer, the buffer can store a pattern of characters that are selected by the conveyer, then the buffer will be sent to the secret to check if the pattern exists in the secret word.

Another feature is the miner, the miner has a grid of numbers ranging from 1 to 9. The miner allows the player to earn money, the player earns money by pressing the number that is green in the grid using the number keys on the keyboard. The yellow keys will try to trick you into pressing them and remove some money, and the red keys will remove 1.5x the amount of money you earn:

Another feature is the balancer, the balancer forces the player to balance the blue square and to prevent it from touching the red rectangles on both sides of the bar. If the player lets the blue square touch the red rectangles, then the player will lose the game:
