927 PointsI am getting 6 tries instead of 7...
When I run the program on the console I am getting "You have 6 tries left to solve" instead of 7... I don't know what it could be... At the begining I thought that was a scope issue but it doesn't seem that

19,870 PointsI think your issue is that you are initializing misses to a space instead of an empty string. So the first time through misses.length will equal 1.
// in Game.java
// should be "" not " " (also hits should be fixed)
misses = " ";
// then this should be evaluated correctly
public int getRemainingTries(){
return MAX_MISSES - misses.length();
}
