How far along is this? Is it in the early concept phase? Is there a framework for gameplay in place? Any test levels?
As it stands, it seems all there is right now is "someone has an idea: Do a Dark Mod-like game in Unity". Which is fine, every project is at the concept phase at one point.
Not to replicate the OPDE vs. Dark Mod arguments ("why are you wasting your time on ID Tech 4? It'll never go open source!"/"OPDE will never go anywhere!") but I do wonder why we need yet another Thiefy game in yet another engine.
On one hand- the more the merrier, and there have been one-man projects that really shone. On the other hand, we have TDM, it runs on a truly open-source engine, and if all that fragmented energy were directed in one direction, it might be better.

I see :) Sorry to "hide in the shadows", its more than an ideia at this stage, that i can tell you. I will post a video soon showing the proper atmosphere.

I didn't want to press on dark mod, but it is worth pointing out, because the engine & game is open source (the (
http://www.thedarkmod.com/download-sourcecode/) sourcecode is here), it is relatively very easy to create a branch game with your own gameplay, and you already have the assets & sneaking mechanic for free. What I mean is, you don't have to even make a dark mod game. You can alter the sourcecode to make your own game. You just have a giant headstart. Unity has its advantages too, but I thought I'd at least let you know that other option is there too.

Hopefully it will be a more refined Thief experience, since the unity engine has potencial to modernize the gameplay thief model,
without the dumbing down of modern games.
