“Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow” (post 2) by Gabrielle Zevin: Video game designers consider a multiple-personality scenario.

Midway in this novel, Sadie and Sam, a pair of video game designers, are considering a proposal for their next video game:


“The game took place in a high school, and each character could summon alternate versions of themselves through a complicated system of wormholes. Love Doppelgängers, its tentative title, was part romance and part science fiction” (1, p. 204).


Comment: I don’t know whether Sadie and Sam will pursue that concept, or if they will recognize it as being a multiple-personality scenario, in which persons have alternate versions of themselves.
