Show HN: Hangin' Man – A modern take on classic hangman game

https://www.hanginman.xyz
5•ars2107_•21h ago
Hello HN,

I recently built a hangman game called Hangin' Man! It's just a weekend project, nothing crazy, but I'd been wanting to create this for ages out of frustration with the lack of decent hangman games out there.

I love playing word games - I regularly play Wordle, Skribbl, you name it. But hangman was my favourite game growing up. I'm really disappointed by the hangman options available online. Most of them look like they're from the 2000s and use kindergarten-level words.

So this is my attempt at making "the hangman game" for the internet. It has a competitive mode for word geeks and a casual mode for beginners. The difficulty actually adapts, and you can customise your character with accessories (because why not make it fun?).

Please share any feedback and help me make this better! Also, I could use some advice on how to get this in front of the right people who might actually enjoy it.
