About Hero: Telekinesis
Psychic powers can be difficult to execute in games but there have been successful instances and sometimes simple is better. This game takes the idea of psychic powers and focuses on one of the most basic applications. A lot of games have the ability for characters to pick things up whether it's by hand, a tool, or some kind of ability. This is going for the third and has it effectively mapped to two buttons. Unfortunately, you can't have a greater variety of objects to throw or a more diverse environment, but it's still a fun toy to play with.

The goal of each level is to eliminate all of the enemies in the area. The number of enemies remaining will be tracked in the top left corner of the screen. Your health bar will be shown in the bottom left corner of the screen and if it empties, you'll need to retry the level again.
From the main menu, you can jump right into the game where you'll spawn in an open area. Levels consist of a contained white space with certain structures and blocks for cover. Enemies will spawn in certain locations and will either run toward you or take shots at you from certain vantage points. Throughout the area are blue objects that can be picked up with your psychic powers. These can be crates, javelins, or explosive barrels which can be launched at enemies from quite a distance. Enemies can be armored or large allowing them to deal more hits and take more damage. They'll always be able to track you so you'll never lose sight of them.
Tips and Tricks
The challenge is that the number of throwable objects can be quite limited so you need to use them efficiently. Crates can take out ranged enemies with a single strike while javelins can do heavy damage to large enemies. Barrels should be reserved for groups of armored foes.
