Federico Fasce's games consultancy Urustar makes videogames for use in communication strategies. As a part of their launch, they have created Urustar - The Game, which you can play from their website. I seem to appear, in pixel form, in the game's opening. I think it's a good likeness.

As you'll see if you play through, another, more well-known character from videogames appears later.

As for the game itself, I suppose there's something of a mismatch between the pearls of wisdom about games that pixel-me asks you to collect, and the mechanics that underwrite that experience. But c'mon, really, how can I criticize this game?

Thank you so much, Ian.
I know that the mechanics of the game are far from perfect. I did the game in a very little time mainly to experiment with flixel and flash. I would like to write more episodes of this, and for sure I will try to stick more to the correct mechanics.
Meanwhile, I'm very happy that you noticed this little thingie :)
Thanks again.

Federico, there's perhaps no greater flattery than pixel art. Thanks for it.
