Try changing the colour of your text to black or something dark to be seen on the red, and changing the coordinates of the text to somewhere over the drawfillbox

[Salman]

I tried doing that but it still doesnt work.

[Pyralblitzzz]

Just to be clear, you're trying to get the "Player 1 Score" text to appear over the red box at the top? Because if that's the case, then take a look at the order you're drawing the objects in. The text is being drawn first, then the box. The box covers the txt, and it never shows up. How can you fix that?

Thanks, i got it, i put the font after the box
