i still need to fix going up really fast for steep hills (also for the example, dont go off the edge, it screws flash up, just warning you)
I should have really read that before playing.
But seriously, it looks pretty good. I can't wait to see where you take that engine from here.
yeah, im pretty sure it has to do with the dots falling into nothingness... maybe ill put a muffin down there so they dont act like wusses and try to crash flash...
and thanks 
all ive got for the game is the main character. i think for the setting it should be something suburban or urban... also if anyone wants the code or fla file just ask, reason im not posting it right now is cause i dont want some random person using it in their game without asking/credting.
I assume you're running a while (!hitTestPoint) on the ground for both of the dots, right? When there's no ground underneath to hitTest, it just runs the loop to infinity. I think you could put
if (char.y > 1000) { break; }
right after the beginning of the while loop to prevent it. Then again it wouldn't fix anything, just prevent a complete crash.
its not the player thats the problem, its the points, but thats not much of a problem, its easily fixed, i just dont need to yet.
Can't you arbitrarily put a limit down (so if it collides with that, it stops)?
like i said, ill fix it for the eral version, this i sjust getting the engine up and running
_x += speed * Math.sin((_rotation)*(Math.PI/180))
_y += -speed * Math.cos((_rotation)*(Math.PI/180))
Use this to fix those extreme angles. Instead of adding 'speed' to _x, use this to add 'speed' to both, depending on the angle.

Well, no, then your char will just be warping downwards indefinitely. Use a for loop instead of a while loop (never use whiles on anything that's !hitTest).
If I am clear on the purpose of the !hitTest while loop, it is for fixing the overshoot of the character after you moved him out of the ground right? If so, then why do you need to run it at all unless you detected a collision before it?
if(char.hitTest(ground)) {
char._y --;
while(char.hitTest(ground)) {
char._y --;
}
while(!char.hitTest(ground)) {
char._y++;
}
}
