Can someone explain why this isn't working?

I do believe I hit all conditions. It may be a problem with the syntax, but I can't seem to find a reason why this doesn't work.

movement.py 
# EXAMPLES:
# move((1, 1, 10), (-1, 0)) => (0, 1, 10)
# move((0, 1, 10), (-1, 0)) => (0, 1, 5)
# move((0, 9, 5), (0, 1)) => (0, 9, 0)

def move(player, direction):
    x, y, hp = player
    horizontal, vertical = direction

    if (x + horizontal) >= 0 and (x + horizontal) <= 9 and (y + vertical) >= 0 and (y + vertical) <= 9:    
        x = x + horizontal
        y = y + vertical
    else:
        hp = hp - 5


    return x, y, hp

It looks good to me, and when I paste it directly into the challenge it passes!

So try again?
