Perhaps the most haunting aspect of We Are Lost Version 0.4.16 is the response (or lack thereof) from Hollow Head Games. When asked about the doppelgänger mechanic, the lead developer—who goes only by "Hollow"—posted a single sentence on the official forums:

"There is only one version. You just haven't been lost enough to see it yet."
