E.T.'S SPECIAL POWERS & ACTIONS
TELEKINESIS
E.T. can use Telekinesis to move Items you otherwise couldn't reach. Press and hold the button, and a floating red circle will appear.
Still holding the button, move the circle over the Item you want to move, and the circle will pick up the Item. You can now move the Item wherever you want. To set the Item down, press the button again.
HEALING POWER
E.T. has the power to heal plants, and as you move across the universe you will come upon flowers of every description. Press and hold the button to use E.T.'s healing power and bring flowers back to life.
Then move E.T. close to the flower to collect it. For every 20 plants you collect, you get an extra life!
E.T.'s travels will bring you in contact with a wide variety of creatures, and some of them aren't very friendly at all. For these, press the button, and circles of E.T.'s life force will stun the creature in front of you. For smaller creatures, stun them a second time and they will leave a health item!
Sometimes, you just need to run. Press and hold the R2 button to run. E.T. will resume walking as soon as you let go of the button.
