its a good start i think needs sound or something though and to work out the glitch i missed the jump at the end of the level to get the lever and i went in a infinite loop of falling and also sometimes i went threw bricks when jumping but not too bad for a first try

Thank you! :)
Please don't put "my first game"s on NG or really anywhere on the internet for everyone to see.
First, don't use the Flash IDE to code. It's an animation IDE, not a code IDE.
Framrate's locked at 24 FPS (which is bad in and of itself) - but it makes the controls that much more floaty and hard to control.
Hitboxes are way off, use pixel-perfect collision detection rather than bounding boxes.
Most people use WASD, which a lot of Flash programmers fail to understand for some reason. Allow rebindable keys to solve all of the issues present with keyboard layouts and the like.
Don't use password systems, they're awful.
The graphics aren't great. At all. There's also no animation whatsoever, though that's helped by the fast that we seem to controlling a ball (there's a pattern to most of these Flash game I play, isn't there?)
Music and sound are great, then I don't have to listen to emptiness.
More visual/audio feedback is always good when you collect rewards. Something that makes you feel good instead of just... Nothing.
Space key is commonly used as a jump key, not an interact key. Tutorials or even intuitive controls would help.
The end is... Well, yeah.

Thanks for your feedback. Your tips were very helpful. I just wanted to post my first attempt so my sister could play it. Sorry! I will take your constructive criticism and use it in the future. Hopefully one day I'll create an interesting and fun game for everyone to play. Thanks again! :)
