Decreasing my lives after death

Why don't my lives go down when the ball goes below 0?

if ball_x1 < 25 and ball_y1 < 0 then
lives -= 1
end if

It's probably something wrong with the rest of your code. Do you really want to increase the score when x1 < 25 and y1 < 0? Is this condition ever even evaluated?

looks like the if statement could use tweaking, can you supply the rest of the code?

All he said was for you to read it again lol. Those are honestly questions you should ask yourself as soon as you realize it's broken. Mr. C++
