thanx but how can I make a 2d game, that should still have 2d view. Sorry for my bad english

[hamsterhill]

perhaps you should try a different engine if you want to make a 2d game... something like game maker. but if you still want to do it in blender.

select the camera press ALT+R to clear its rotation so it looks strait down then just parent it too your object... if you want it to jsut stay above the object without the rotating then use a location constraint under object buttons

This was awesome it helped me so much! It really bugged me to have the camera flip over when the object rotated the wrong way. 5/5 and favorited

there are plenty of other resources on the internet besides me. maybe you could try supporting the blender institute by buting one of there books or dvds on the game engine... they know far more on the subject then i ever will
