Yes, power ups a bit like in arcade shooters. If enemies are only damaged you can absorb them (love "thing" movie
and use as your puppet. Game start a bit like Dark Souls, Resident Evil with mixed real time and parasite eve battle system. Later on you will assemble car and play like on video. Plus wants some add feel of broken sword so will be some puzzles and items management. Working on playable demo right now.
Game will be single player for now. I've done typical mistake of making too big project, but will finish it anyway. After demo want to add multi player fights like in "Hogs of War" with story telling
