The issue with the text display being at the bottom instead of the top is related to the canvas.translate function in the main() function. Specifically, this code:

Python
canvas.translate(0, state.window_height - font.getSize())
This line places the text at the bottom of the window due to the subtraction of font.getSize() from state.window_height, essentially offsetting the text to the bottom.

To fix this and display the text at the top-left corner, you should remove the translation offset and directly draw the text at (0, 0). Here's the updated code snippet:

Python
# Draw help message
paint.setColor(ColorBLACK)
canvas.save()
# Remove the translation to the bottom
canvas.translate(0, 0)
canvas.drawString(helpMessage, 0, font.getSize(), font, paint)
canvas.restore()
With this modification, the help message will be displayed at the top-left corner of the window.
