Nate Mitchell scored a nice startup victory as a cofounder of Oculus. And now he’s coming out with another startup, Mountaintop, which showed off its Spectre Divide shooter game this week.

The PC game is a 3v3 multiplayer tactical shooter game with a unique twist: your spectre. You get to start out in the game with a twin, a virtual self, in the same match.

That’s duality.
