Hello
This is a really nice tutorial, but I’ve got a few problems.
First before I waste your time, this works in CS4 right?

If it does:
hitTest doesn’t work for me.
This is my code on my hero movieclip

onClipEvent (load) {
power = 8;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {
_x -= power;
}
if (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {
_x += power;
}
if (Key.isDown(Key.UP)) {
_y -= power;
}
if (Key.isDown(Key.DOWN)) {
_y += power;
}
}
if (_root.coin.hitTest(this.hero_hit)) {
_root.coin._x = Math.random()*400+50;
}

I downloaded the zip file and checked that I had inserted hero_hit into the hero movieclip.
What am I doing wrong?

what does it mean when it says
“Just create a new movieclip called “hero_hit” and insert into the hero’s movieclip, at its center. ”
??

I finally understood that line with the coin O_o the thing is my Ball was soooo big that I’m having a hard time hitting it with my Balls Registration ( in the upper left corner ) … Thanks for this tutorial XD I’m a complete beginner but I’m starting to get the syntax for this type of game.

im using macromedia flash pro 8.
How do i make the wall thing work? after i draw the wall then convert it to symbol, i named it wall and clicked movie clip. and clicked export for actionscript on the linkage.
for the ball i made a new layer and did the same thing as the wall but named it hero then i pasted the actionscript on it… when i run it the ball would simply pass through wall.
how do i solve this?
please help anyone! asap…

You press ctlr+shift to play it and you double click your object and press f8 then render it as a movie clip.
