Can I make a game with 2 main characters?

[Professor Duck]

I am planning on making a game with two main characters, one who is the player character and the other who follows the first one around (like in the Sam and Max games). Is there any way to do this? If so, how difficult is it (I am pretty new to AGS). Is there any way to have a conversation with the two main characters and a third person?

Yes, there is a FollowCharacter() script command to make one character follow another, kind of like in Sam & Max, and you can easily make more than two characters talk in a conversation, just make the third character speak as you would any other character.  You can use the same MoveCharacter and DisplaySpeech type commands you use on the main character with any other character.

Ah, marvellous. Thanks.
