March review


Hello everyone. Here's a report of our progress towards the new version in March.


  • The text is 99.9% complete and ready for translation. 
  • All the new characters (in the next update you'll see quite a few of them) are done. 
  • New background music is almost ready. 
  • We've already done most of the work putting these assets into the game. 

Soon we'll begin the testing of the new build and at the same time we'll send the text to be translated.
We have located and fixed a number of bugs this month. Thank you all for the help in finding them.
We has also reached the 150 Patrons mark today. The support of every single one of you means a lot to us and we're glad that you're with us. Thanks a lot, our dear Patrons! And we're going back to work so you can play the updated game sooner.
Best regards,
Shadow Portal Team.

February review and build for Mac OS

Hello again. This is the time to review the progress we have made in the February. Here's a rundown of what we accomplished in this month.
  • Ported the game for MacOS (Links bellow)
  • Released 2 minor game versions which included improved translation of chapter 2 and memory handling optimisations.
  • Completed writing the main storyline for the next update and finalising work on side quests (The Chicken asks to send you her love)
  • Made 4 out of 6 characters for the next update.
  • Created the required locations.
  • Translation pass on chapter 1 is 60% completed.
  • Work on the new music is in progress.
  • Fixed some gamebreaking bugs.
But there'still a lot of work to do and no time to waste. We also continuing to search for new artists and even found a couple. And here's the links for MacOS version: 
First unpack it. Then you need to set run permissions for these files. Game.app/Contents/Frameworks/nwjs Helper EH.app/Contents/MacOS/nwjs Helper EH Game.app/Contents/Frameworks/nwjs Helper NP.app/Contents/MacOS/nwjs Helper NP Game.app/Contents/Frameworks/nwjs Helper.app/Contents/MacOS/nwjs Helper Game.app/Contents/MacOS/nwjs This can be done either in the file's info window, or by running 'chmod +x' on them in the terminal Without these permissions the game won't run. Best regards Shadow Portal Team.

Now to some other news.
First, we slightly changed the rewards for our Patrons.
Second, with the overwhelming number of votes (48 to 2) our Patrons has decided that we should focus our attention on english version of the game and leave the russian version until better times. That's what we're going to do from now on.

Camelot: The Game [ver.0.50] Eng








Greetings knights and henchmen. This is the time for (long overdue) release of Camelot: The Game. New journeys await our hero full of new acquaintances and unexpected meetings. In this update we've put a lot of work in the world building and secondary characters. Unlike linear story in the demo (which is called "chapter 1" from now on), this version offers a lot of detailed side quests to enrich the ambience.
What's new: 
  1. Added 22 game locations.
  2. A lot of new characters to meet and events to see.
  3. New background music to enrich the game world.
  4. More than 3 hours of gameplay.
  5. Quest log. Use it if you unsure where to go and what to do.
  6.  World map and fast travel. With the new engine comes new ways to make traveling more convinient.
Download links:

Installation and launch guide: 1) Unpack the archive using 7zip or similar tool. 2) Launch [Game.exe] Have a good time playing and don't forget to provide feedback about the game. Best regards Shadow Portal Team.

P.S. New translator's note:
I have been drafted into this project about a week ago. At that time most of the lines were translated by the artist so my task was to translate the rest to make the game ready for release. However, I've noticed that artist's translation requires some clean-up. However, the game release was already delayed and pushing the deadline even further was hardly an option. That's why it was decided to release the game as is and make the version with fixed translation shortly after. Hopefully in the first week of February.
But don't let that stop you from playing the game right now. There's a big chunk of text related to side quests (my initial task) and I've managed to fix a sizeable portion of the main story. Hopefully that would be something to keep you entertained for now.
I know that I just said something that's you never supposed to say as a member of game development team but I feel it's my duty to be completely honest with you. Stay tuned for updates!
