Back on topic.

Usable sidekicks ala Flux Wildly in Toonstruck and Max in Sam and Max.

Psi Warrior style power ups.

In this game you played a man fighting against independent creatures of pure mind. The creatures came in two main types Psi and Id (there was a third type pupae but you were supposed to leave them alone.) In order to achieve amazing mental feats and ultimately defeat the final boss monster the source you had to absorb these creatures.(You netted them to drain their power. fail to net them and they could end up draining you.

However, you had a non-restorable rating called stability coefficient. If your Psi and Id weren't exactly equal this drained. The more out of balance they were the faster it drained. If you went down to zero in either it plummeted. Play became a real cat and mouse game as you had to decide whether to absorb or evade enemies attacking you.
