The way I see it, every life is a pile of good things and bad things. The good things don’t always soften the bad things, but vice versa, the bad things don’t always spoil the good things and make them unimportant.
Kind of. They returned recently after 2-3 years break and started releasing small-medium titles.

Is that the final version then? Because release date is 4 september.
No idea. The NFO doesn't state the version nor I'm able to see it in-game.

Finished the early Hodloodemo (took me ~4 hours), it's an interesting little g̶a̶m̶e̶ running 'n jumping simulator. Its biggest quality is definitely the atmospheric visuals and varied alien environments, beasts, angry robots and shiny fungi, all accompanied by a nice aethereal soundtrack.
It's completely linear and revolves around finicky (but perfectly manageable) trial and error also including simplistic puzzles and scripted sneaking sections, though I liked the noninvasive run-boy-run structure without Hud elements and the psychoability to alter the time of the day, keeping the constraints less obvious.

So you would say it's like INSIDE without the engaging story but with engaging atmosphere/visuals?

Yep precisely, the subtle narrative isn't a strong one and the gameplay itself is a bit less varied with the non-stop platforming + jumping, but the inspired alien atmosphere keeps the pacing alive. Inside is definitely the better (and more gripping) game though, it's a no contest for me.
tried this recently and while the visuals are beautiful the gameplay is just boring, the areas start repeating themselves and theres no sense of progression, story or world. other games like this did a much better job, also with graphics sometimes less is more.
