Are there any books that deal with being a character in a videogame?
I think a book about a mario clone that deals with reincarnation and being an useless puppet to some God desires to fullfill a destiny that is repetitive could win some prize.
It probably could win some prize if it was self-aware, "clever," and funny. Sounds pretty autistic to me though.
yes, tons of books deal with self-aware AI having existential crises, or even before that with dream characters realizing they're dreams, etc, etc, it's been done to death.
specifically dealing with videogames i've only seen in it in shitty scif-fi short story in a magazine and in dot hack A.I buster (don't ask how i know).

Videogames deal with this specific theme better anyway (as if it was made specifically for a game's capabilities or something)
Just play the Stanley Parable.
