When the level ends, add time to your score variable. Is that what you mean?

What Vee41 says. Plus, make sure your array Height and Depth are at least 1, even if you are not using them. Having them at 0 caused me similar issues in the past.

Actually my next tutorial series will be just that, but in the mean time maybe my spawning enemies tutorial will help?

Your Hero sprite is a 2 frame animation. The collision box on both frames doesn't match up, take a look at the collision box on frame 1.

That's your answer ;).

First off, you don't want to reset your global variables unless it's game over.

Start off by setting your global variable LIVES = 3

Then when the hero gets hit, remove one from LIVES and update the text box.

After all three are gone, game over.
