Or, you could try this:
//Restart Button
Retry_btn.onRelease = function() {
Player_mc._x = 0 //Or wherever the player starts out.
Player_mc._y = 0 //Or wherever the player starts out.
gotoAndStop(1);
}

Just wondering, is this referring to the stage moving up and down, or the player?

this._y += 5;

Um.... the player. Why?

Well, since I am only familiar with Object Oriented Programming, I'm not sure if using the this keyword inside of a function inside of root will refer to root or the player.

Try changing this to Player_mc and see if it makes any difference.

Or perhaps try this:
//Check If It Touches The Wall
if (Wall_mc.hitTest(Player_mc._x, Player_mc._y, true)) {
Player_mc._x = 0 //Or wherever the player starts out.
Player_mc._y = 0 //Or wherever the player starts out
gotoAndStop(2);
}

THANK YOU EVERYONE SO MUCH. I finally got it all working.

Here is the link to the updated one:

It isn't that good but it is a start. And thank you all again, you guys have helped me so much.

One more question, I'm trying to make a pause menu, could you guys help me out with that?

Well, you could just put a big "if" for everything

if(Pause == false)
{
All the code for moving and etc
}

So that is saying it isn't paused, what code do I put to make it paused and how do I make it become paused if I say.. push the "P" button on the keyboard?

if(Pause == false)
{
All the code for moving and etc
}

Not much different from what you might have now. Something like

if (Key.isDown(80))
{
Pause = true;
}

Nice job! I'm glad it worked out.

Now you can try adding more things like moving obstacles and time limits.

80 is the code for "P"

How do you find out what all the codes for the keys are.

Google "ASCII Chart"

None of this makes sense

I should srlsy consider some programming classes :P

@Maaron: Well, you could either make the Menu on a new keyframe and disable all the movement buttons and stop the timer(if there is one)...or you could have the menu, invisible during game play, on a different layer and disable everything movement and timer...
Just two ways I quickly thought of...there's probably other ways...but it should work

@Ricador: lol...yea...once you make something cool, you'll get somewhat obsessed with it :P
