Is The Alters Multiplayer?

The Alters is a single-player only game with no multiplayer, co-op, or online features. The game is intentionally designed as a solo experience where players control Jan Dolski and manage alternate versions of himself called "Alters." Multiplayer would fundamentally undermine the game's core narrative concept, which focuses on personal introspection and the consequences of life choices.
