What strategies can be employed to improve the user experience and functionality of a PHP-based Hangman game, considering the limitations and challenges described in the forum thread?
Issue: One challenge mentioned in the forum thread is the lack of visual feedback for incorrect guesses in the Hangman game. To improve the user experience and functionality, we can add a feature that displays the incorrect guesses made by the user. Code snippet:
// Add a variable to store incorrect guesses
$incorrectGuesses = [];
// Check if the user's guess is incorrect and add it to the incorrect guesses array
if (!in_array($guess, $wordLetters)) {
$incorrectGuesses[] = $guess;
}
// Display the incorrect guesses to the user
echo "Incorrect guesses: " . implode(", ", $incorrectGuesses);
