How would a camera follow two actors? If the actors move together, it would be possible. But if they don't... well, can you imagine having two kids run in different directions and saying to the babysitter "please follow them."
Can you explain more about what you're trying to do?

OK, yeah it makes sense. So it should be possible then to make this in GS. Whats the trick? Would be very useful to know if one would want to make, say, a multiplayer game with "Stay Together" kind of camera.
Fair enough! When I need the help with that, which I will need if I make a game like that, which I actually might, I will "throw my money on the flo", for you to "pick ya money up", @Summation. I´ll give you a shout then.
Ah, I see. I know what you mean now. That´s btw a great game. But I´d recommend you to go through the tutorials available for endless runners first, or even download some template. When you´ve got the hang of it, I know you´ll figure out how to add another character to the mix. Check out this thread, packed with useful links:
Split screen is not possible on gamesalad, Angels demons must not be moving the camera at all. The backgrounds and objects are moving to give the appearance of the camera moving.

Im not sure, but I think you might mean something like this:
Would be an awesome thing. But that cant be made with GS, unfortunately. As far as I know.
But I guess you could zoom out the camera so that the two actors always stay visible..? Something like this:
Hope this helps!

Only time i can remember doing the camera following multiple actors is below in a multi player game where the lead ship takes control of the camera.
I can rip it apart for the rules if it helps.

@sebmat86 You're asking me to unravel a piece of magic, huh? Sounds like paid work.

I meant something like what the user sniffy 176 achieves in his game ( angels v demons)
