Class GameConstants

java.lang.Object
com.slinky.hackmaster.model.GameConstants
public class GameConstants extends Object
The GameConstants class defines a set of constants used throughout the game application. These constants include the starting number of guesses a player has, the default font size for text rendering, and the Font object used within the application's UI.

This class is designed to centralise these key configuration values, ensuring they are consistently used across the application and can be easily referenced or modified if needed (except for final fields which are immutable).

This class is not meant to be instantiated, but rather serves as a convenient container for game-related constants that are commonly referenced in the application's logic and UI components.
