Ahorcapy: Hangman Game in Python by Son Link

What is interesting

This game is made by They are Link … Currently the stable version 0.9 is available, and it is 100% Python : )

It is at the moment a hangman as many have seen, but thematic, that is, the words to guess are related to Linux, Free Software, etc 🙂

You can download it from this link: Download Ahorcapy 0.9

But ... I leave you a line that will do everything for you 🙂

cd $HOME && mkdir ahorcapy && cd ahorcapy && wget http://dl.dropbox.com/u/58286032/programas/ahorcapy-0.9.0.tar.gz && tar -xzvf ahorcapy-0.9.0.tar.gz

What this will do is create a folder in your home call hangcapy, and inside it will put the game 🙂

To run it, just open a terminal and go to that directory, that is, open a terminal (console) and in it write the following and press [enter]: cd $ HOME / Ahorcapy

And then they put this and press [enter]: python Ahorcapy.py

Ready, this will be enough for them to open the game and they can enjoy it 🙂

Also, they can execute the file with administrative permissions install.sh (sudo ./install.sh), this will install the game for them and they can later run it only by putting in a terminal: hangcapy

What is new or different about this hanged man? … Well, hehe… to begin with it is developed (made) by a member of our community (They are Link), and he is ready to listen to complaints, ideas, suggestions ... in other words, if we have any ideas that they think would improve the game, he will listen to us 😀

Also, at the moment the words to guess are almost all related to Linux (as I said at the beginning), this is undoubtedly something cool hahahahaha.

The game is also available in AUR for users of ArchLinux: AUR Hangover

Also ... this is the repository Go de They are Link for the game: Git Hangman

Here is his blog post announcing version 0.9.0 of this game: Hangman 0.9.0

Thanks all to him for how cool he is haha, and also thank you very much for the mention 🙂

regards

PD: Visit his blog… he has more interesting applications 😀 - » They are Link Blog.

    I am playing it. A suggestion, I think it would be good if you could clearly see how many letters the word has.

    Vicky, I make a note to see how it can be done, although I use underscores and the spacing depends a bit on the font to be used.
    v3on: in windows it does not work because Curses (the toolkit that I use for the game interface) is not available for windows.
    At the moment I have no intention of porting it to windows, but that depends on whether more windows users may be interested.

      "Although I use underscores and the spacing depends a bit on the font to be used"

      - I don't know if I understood you correctly, but there should be no problem because the terminal sources are Monospace. If you put a dash per letter, it must match (if the problem is that the underscores are joined as a single line, you could use "less" or another character that you do not know).

      By the way, the game is pretty good 😀
