15,203 Pointsif variable_name -= 1:
is not a valid conditional statement.
may be you meant.
if variable_name == -1:
If there is still a problem then...you probably are not considering all possible scenarios.
For example, in your first condition
if x == 0 and xd == -1:
Considers when the focus in on left border and xd(x_displacement) is towards left side(-1). Cant move, hit the wall and hitpoints reduce by 5. but what when the player in in center of the board and trying to move left.(when x>0)
Answer is: .
