Shadwen looks like it might turn a few heads at release, and it certainly seems like it could be interesting to me. There is now a demo available to try out.
It's a little on the rough side right now, but it's showing real promise.
About the game
Shadwen is a stealth-action game where the only rule is to remain unseen. Stay hidden - or the ruthless guards will kill you on sight!
Shadwen, an assassin on a quest to kill the king, has a chance encounter with an orphaned girl, Lily. She follows Shadwen on her dangerous journey, but when the ruthless guards get too close, Shadwen must take action right in front of Lily's eyes.
Will Shadwen risk the girl's budding trust by resorting to violence, or try and find another way while keeping her real purpose concealed?
To kill or not to kill - that is the question.
You can get the demo on GOG and Steam. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

It's quite a bit different than Thief. I haven't played too much yet, but from first impressions, I'd describe it more as a stealth based sandbox puzzle game (...if that makes any sense) than a proper, straightforward sneak-em-up.
That's not to say it isn't good. Seems pretty cool from what little I've seen. Once I finish getting my Steam controller set up properly for it, I'll give it a solid go.
Oh, and I also get the purple tutorial videos.

I tried to launch the game but couldn't even get through the launcher. I couldn't find my screen's resolution on the list. It doesn't seem to support 2560x1440 at all, highest I saw was 1920x1200.

In my case I could not get to lauch the game too. If you start the shell script in the steam directory you can actually see that fonts and buttons are missing. The tutorial is a pink screen?! Finally played the demo and it's a pretty decent game.

Well i tried it.
I have the stop bug, the game works only if the caracter is in motion.
The Tutorial is a Pink fullscreen with sound that i can't stop, and i have others bugs, the rope it's taken from Zoya ;) of Trine 3.
I think that it's not more that an alfa code.
