Build Your Own Guess the Number Game

Project Description

The "Guess the Number Game" project aims to create an interactive web-based game where players attempt to guess a randomly generated number within a specified range. The game will provide real-time feedback on whether guesses are too high, too low, or correct, enhancing user engagement and enjoyment. The application will have a simple, intuitive interface, making it accessible to players of all ages.

Objectives

• Provide an engaging and fun gameplay experience for users.

• Allow users to start a new game and specify the range of numbers.

• Provide feedback on user guesses (too high, too low, or correct).

• Keep track of the number of attempts taken to guess the correct number.

• Enable users to reset the game easily after completing a round.

Functional Requirements User Management

• Start New Game: Users can start a new game and define the range of numbers (e.g., 1- 100).

• Submit Guess: Users can submit a guess and receive feedback. Game Logic

• Generate Random Number: The game will randomly generate a number within the specified range.

• Feedback Mechanism: Provide feedback to the user based on their guess:

  • Too High

  • Too Low

  • Correct Guess

•  Attempt Count: Keep track of the number of attempts made by the user.

Game Reset

• Reset Game: Users can reset the game to play again without refreshing the page.

Non-Functional Requirements

• Usability: The game interface should be intuitive and user-friendly, suitable for all age groups.

• Performance: The game should provide instant feedback with minimal latency.

• Accessibility: The game should be accessible to users with disabilities, following web
  accessibility standards (WCAG).

• Cross-Browser Compatibility: The game should work seamlessly across all major browsers.

Use Cases 

• Start a New Game: User initiates a new game by defining a range.

• Submit a Guess: User submits a guess and receives feedback.
