Game Introduction

If you press and hold the first button, you will leave your companion who is not harmed by the enemies and create a line between the two of you. If you then release the button, your companion will be drawn along that line, knocking out any enemies in between. If you can get to the glowing ball of power, you can use the second button to throw it at an enemy, destroying him/it.
