# 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
    if x < 0:
        hp -= 5
        x = 0
    if x > 9:
        hp -= 5
        x = 9
    if y < 0:
        hp -= 5
        y = 0
    if y > 9:
        hp -= 5
        y = 9
    return x, y, hp

You have to use the direction parameter to move the player.

Right now you're just checking if the player's starting position is within the walls, which it would definitely be.
