I would try something like this.
Create a boolean Game attribute "follow" and set to false.
Create an integer Game attiribute "playerX
Create an integer Game attribute "playerY"
Now go to player actor and create a rule "When follow is true"
constrain attribute player.position.X to Game.playerX-20
constrain attribute player.position.Y to Game.playerY-20
Then create a rule for the enemy actor. When actor collides with actor "player"
change attribute Game.follow to true
Finally create another rule for the enemy actor. When follow = true
constrain attribute enemy.position.X to playerX
constrain attribute enemy.position.Y to playerY
This should help get you started. Experiment with behaviors! You can do it!
