Notable gameplay mechanics: I tried a demo of a game on Steam many moons ago, but I'm certain it no longer is on Steam. Here is what I remember:
It was a third person shooter and early on in the demo you encountered this big rug hanging on a horizontal pole in a small backroom with many crates. You could shoot the rug, and it had physics calculations, that made it move believably.
[Fig. 1]
Then you encountered enemies in a huge room with ramps. Somehow you could take control of them or use your mind powers on them somehow. They had an aura to indicate this, which I think was a light blue.
[Fig. 2]
The same level also had a puzzle with ramps that were held up with hooks on a chain. You could mind-power those hooks to move them, so that the ramp would come falling down and let you walk up, or let enemies fall down.
[Fig. 3]
I know that many signs point to Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy, and it looks close to what is in my mind, but I have not found any footage of the incredible rug, or the hook puzzle that I remember so clearly.
If you have five hours, here's the whole game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tAiQyx39l8k
Yes, but all my memories are from the Windows demo, and that may not even be part of the full game.
There are flags at 1:18:00, that look like they might react to gunfire, but they are not shot at.
Didn't see anything else, in this video, that looks like the incredible rug.
