Alright guys, this is finally done!
Dear lord, I think this was the biggest time crunch I've ever had since I first started TA. Please, if I ever mention anything about making an extra large update, someone please smack some sense into me lol
Anyway, it is done. As promised, this upda...
2019-04-05 03:43:04 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys,
First of all, I'm really sorry. If I'm gonna announce I delay I know I should do this a few days early, not on the day of the update. I kept telling myself I'd be able to get it done in time but after staying up for around 22 hours just now and barely sleeping the past week, I rea...
2019-03-31 11:14:37 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys.
Just coming by real quick to say that I made a tiny mistake in the latest update. You see, when Keisuke takes the MC to the music store, there is a variable in place so the game recognizes whether you'd been there before and the characters comment accordingly. Problem is, th...

Hey there, guys!
I have to admit, I had a really hard time working on this update. It's already become sort of a trend where Keisuke gives me a really hard time writing for him. This month I had what was likely the biggest blank of my life. I kept staring at the script and thinking to mysel...
2019-03-02 21:27:05 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone.
I'm sorry for posting this so close to the end of the month, but... to be honest, I kinda forgot February was a shorter month. I thought for sure "Okay, I'm gonna have this done by the end of the month" thinking that we had 30 days this month ^^'
So, yeah, I just wanted ...

Hey there, guys!
Hope you've been doing well. This update is a few hours late because I finished it in the nick of time and then... my internet took nearly three hours to upload it.
I'm not 100% sure how I feel about this update. I keep feeling strange whenever I write the more ...

Hey there, guys!
First of all, I hope you all had a great Christmas and New Year. Things were a bit turbulent here but overall everything went okay! Now, without further delay, here you guys have the update!
Changelog:
Hey everyone!
Hope you guys are having a blast with this year's holidays. I really wish you guys a wonderful (belated) Christmas and hope that you guys will have amazing new years! Your support over this past year really meant a lot to me and it's thanks to you all that I can work on ...

Heeeello everyone!
I actually surprised myself a little bit when I managed to get this update done in time. My apartment isn't fully organized yet (I don't even have a chair to sit on to use my computer... or eat). Still, I did my best to not delay two months in a row (and I'd feel especially awfu...
2018-11-30 20:01:23 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys.
I don't know how many of you keep an eye on the Goals part of the page. In reality, I've been neglecting it a bit myself in the past few months and I feel I should explain why (and also why they were changed to higher numbers).
When I first started working on Tennis Ace, I was stil...

Okaaay.
First of all, I'm really sorry about the delay. Luckily I was able to get it done sooner than I was expecting to (4 days instead of 7. Wooho...).
This update was a bit tough to write because of all the others things I've been having to do for my move and whatnot. Still, I think it ca...
2018-11-04 19:17:08 +0000 UTC View PostHey, guys.
I'm really sorry to be posting this (I've been postponing this notice for as long as possible holding onto the hope that I'd be able to finish it in time).
The thing is, I'm on the process of moving. I've been boxing stuff up, organizing the details of my trip (plane ticket, bus t...

Hey guys!
First of all, I'm sorry to be releasing this almost on the 1st of October. I wanted to finish everything up and release the update early in the morning today but I caught a nasty stomach bug last night and ended up spending most of my day in bed unable to work ^^'
Still, I was able...
2018-10-01 02:51:16 +0000 UTC View PostWell, not really a poll since there isn't an actual voting thingy going on. Since TA has way too many side characters for me to include them all in a poll, I'm just gonna ask you guys to tell me in the comments.
The reason I ask is so I can have a better idea on whose stories to feature f...

Heyo, everyone!
I'm really proud of myself with this one. I was able to finish the update in time even when I thought I wouldn't be able to. Not only that, I really like how it came out!
In this update, we find out more about Kei-kun's family dynamics (has someone sensed a pattern here? What...
2018-09-01 00:48:26 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys, WOTB/Basket here!
I would like to ask you guys how you guys found out about Tennis Ace at first. The reason for this being that the advertisement time I bought from FA is about to expire and I want to be able to quantify what actual impact it has led into my patronage. Because of that, I...

Alright, after the delay I told you guys about, I finally have version 0.17 at the ready.
First of all, I'd like to apologize for one thing. I had promised to make a double update because I wanted to increase the pace at which the game would progress. While the idea by itself wasn't bad, it quickl...
2018-08-06 01:07:57 +0000 UTC View PostHowdy, guys!
Well, not exactly my birthday yet but I'm gonna have some family coming from out of town to stay here with us for a few days during my birthday period. Since I'm the only person in the house that doesn't live with a partner, my room was selected to be their housing during this time an...

Howdy, everyone!
First off, I want to apologize for something. I really, REALLY wanted to make this a double update releasing content for Jun and Shoichi but, while I am close to finishing up Shoichi's part, there was no way I could get it done without having to push this update back. Because of t...
2018-06-30 21:51:35 +0000 UTC View Post
These are the new sprites that will be introduced into the game in the next update or two (I say "or two" because I am not yet clear on whether I'll be able to finish both Jun's and Shoichi's portion as I wanted to try submitting a double update. If I manage to do it, you'll see the other two huskie...

Heya, everyone!
It's that time of the month again and this time I was able to stay on schedule despite the delay last month! With this one complete, all three characters have their heart events complete so now the routes can truly start. So without further ado, here's the latest Jun update. Hopefu...
2018-05-31 07:46:39 +0000 UTC View Post
Well, the nude versions won't actually be in the game (no use for it) but I thought people might like to see them so... here they are :p
There are still other sprites being worked on right now but these three have already been finished x3
Howdy, guys!
It's been 14 days since the patreon release of this version so I can now release the public one x3
The download link is on the project's itch.io page here!
It contains Keisuke's portion of charact...

Well, cutting it a wee bit close but I am delivering it just one hour before the end of the 5 extra days I asked due to the personal problems I've been having :p
This update was fun to work on, although I do wish I could have done some stuff better in it. Mostly, I wish I could be a faster worker ...
2018-05-06 03:41:46 +0000 UTC View PostThis came as a result of me joking around with two friends of mine (one of them is my patron) about how flirty they are with each other. We kept joking about how they'd totally bang if they could and that ended up making me want to write a story about it x3
So enjoy this story about how t...
2018-04-30 22:46:53 +0000 UTC View PostHere we have the third and final part of the Shoichi short story detailing how he first met and befriended the protagonist. I hope you guys will enjoy it :3
2018-04-30 22:43:49 +0000 UTC View PostHey, guys. It's me again.
I'm really sorry to bring you guys this news but I've had some personal problems the past few days and was unable to finish the demo in time. I'm gonna be postponing the update for 3 to 5 days because of it. Meanwhile, I'll be posting the last part of the SFW short story ...
2018-04-30 19:32:18 +0000 UTC View PostAlright, guys. Since it's been 14 days since the release of build 0.12, I had to update the public build. Now, in a move that might get a few patrons upset at me, I decided to go and update the public build directly to 0.13 (the latest) for two reasons:
1 - Since there was no update for an entire ...

Hope you've all been doing super well! As you've seen, things have been progressing rather rapidly as of late and I really hope to continue going at that pace x3
The question I have now is for after I'm done making the Character Select events for Jun and Keisuke. I ...

Okay. This one is kinda out of the blue cause I wasn't even planning on doing it now.
I just decided to fiddle with it out of curiosity. I had tried to make an Android version a while ago and the UI was broken beyond repair, so I decided to let sleeping dogs lie and set myself to hire a prog...
