Cannot put my game into the GUI without there being issues. When starting the GUI, it shows the game. It glitches out and only fixes after pressing on of the buttons. However the buttons are hidden unless you put your mouse over it. Here is the code:

Here is the code for the renderer class:
import java.awt.Graphics;
import java.awt.Graphics2D;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
public class Renderer extends JPanel
{
@Override
protected void paintComponent(Graphics g)
{
super.paintComponent(g);
if (BBSays.bbsays != null)
{
BBSays.bbsays.paint((Graphics2D) g);
}
}
}
I think that the issue is here as I use the super. method and want to put the graphics on the game JPanel in the main code. I have tried many ways of doing this but I am not able to put the game on a JPanel.
If you can help it is greatly appreciated.
