Thief: Game of Shadows
About
I love the Thief series and all stealth games but what really frustrates me in newer games is they make it too action-y and you're capable of fighting your way out of most situations or even dive-in guns blazing.
So I'm making a game that ONLY focuses on the stealth aspect of the game; and if you're spotted you're killed and must restart the level! You, the competent thief, are invisible in the shadows and can only be seen in the light. You also make noise if you walk too quickly. Guards can only see you if you're visible in their range of vision (their vision can be blocked by corners) and they can hear noise waves you make within a small radius (about 2 blocks).
Steal all the gold in the level to complete the game.
