Try editing this script.  Place it on an MC to see what it does, then edit it.

onClipEvent(load)

{

   function reset()

   {

   if(this._name=="face")

   {

   this._visible=false;

   }

   else

   {

   this._visible=true;

   }

   this.dead=0;

   this.speed=random(3)+1;

   this._y=500;

   this._x=random(450);

   }

   this.reset();

  



}

onClipEvent(enterFrame)

{

this._y-=this.speed;

if(this._y<-50)

{

this.reset();

}

}

What's with the jumping up and down?  Do you mean in animation or game creation?

If it's animation you could try using Motion Guides (but that is a form of motion tween).  If it is in game creation try searching http://www.tutorialized.com/ for tutorials on 'platform games'.
