Excellent! This stealth game is a walking simulator with the ability to be killed with one shot, if you were noticed by guards. Mechanics are simple. We can only walk, jump and crouch, nothing more. But more, in principle, not necessary. The first Chapter is short, but it's enough to get acquainted with the world and mechanics of the game. There are secret passages and rooms where you can get 2 achievements. The graphics are very cute, the lighting is nice, textures are pleasing to the eye. The music is Gothic and not get bored. Enough settings here: graphics, sound/music and controls. For me it is very important that you can reassign the keys (including the mouse buttons) and set the invert mouse Y-axis (huge thanks for that!).
In short, the game is good in all respects, but there are a couple of points, which does slightly spoil the impression - the sound of the steps of the player (not natural, loud and annoying - needs to be changed!) and periodic glitch with the inability to pass through a doorway or climb up the stairs, being squatting (for a stealth game it is very important and certainly needs to be fixed). In any case - a very good start for an episodic game. Waiting for the next parts eagerly and I wish the authors all the best! Thanks guys!
P.S. I've thought about it and decided that personally I do not have here the function of interaction with the environment - put out the torch, throw a stone to distract, stun and hide the bodies of guards, use objects of the environment (doors, levers, etc.), read books, etc. But it will be a game named "Thief". And if the concept of the game is conceived in such a simplified format, then I'm willing to live with it.
