News update for 0.42

Hey guys. Seven weeks have passed since 0.41 and I'm working as fast as I can to deliver 0.42 in time.

So far I'm pleased with the result. Amber's storyline will be the main dish: 3 stories are ready with erotic scenes and I'm about to finish the 4th. They are fully animated and the sound is already in place.

Until the end of the month, I must complete also Taylor's rehearsal and Helen's apology.

Lastly, If I have time, I'll add a short prog...

No, wait! It's not what it looks like!

Hey folks! It's been a long 3 weeks since my last post. Between some minor problems at my day job and personal life, I 'd say that I haven't stopped working on my visual novels.

Wait! Plural? What's going on?

Nothing much, just a little sidetrack for a couple of weeks but now I'm back to TTBS.

Well, this happened: I was working on Amber's visit. Remember the first time? MJ was supposed to recite a piece from a classic work of erotica:  Fanny Hill, right? Now, this ti...

So many stories for 0.42

Hey guys, first of all I'd like to welcome the new patrons: Welcome guys. 

Personally, I'm really satisfied about the reception of the public version of TTBS. I've got many positive reviews that set the bar really high for the next updates. But I'm confident that I won't let you down. 

Since I have to add some rounds this time, I definitely have to add also a bunch of content. The rough draft I have prepared for 0.42 includes stories tha...

TTBS v0.41 is ready (LINKS)

Okay... Only 4 weeks after the previous release, and I have my next update ready already (Ready already? That's a catchy lyric :-) ). This wasn't planned and I made it from a scratch as a thank you for helping me reaching the 50 patrons' goal.

I originally planned to also have a couple of new rounds but there wasn't enough time (since I had to include MJ's apology for slapping Helen). 

So basically, in order to see the new content you'll have to load a previous save. Sorry ab...

A new update in 10 days (v0.41)

Hey friends,

As you might already know, I'm working on a couple of new side stories regarding Summer's storyline. Also I might include a couple of other stuff too.

I think I'll have everything ready by Saturday 17th. It will be a small update but I think you'll like it, as do I.

Until that day, stay safe y'all.

As promised...

Hey friends, 

With the last update, something wonderful happened: I finally reached my first goal.

50+ patrons!

You might think that it's not a big deal, but honestly for me it's colossal. And,  I have none other to thank for this, than you, beautiful people.

I've worked hard all these years, with Goss_IP and now with TTBS and my num...

TTBS v0.4 is here (Links)

Hey people, 

this is one of the updates that make me proud of my work. I'm sure you'll like it too.

As usual, the Changelog and Hints will be at the bottom of this post, so if you don't like any spoilers just download and play.

Almost ready

Hey people. It's been six weeks from the last update and I can already see the light at the end of the tunnel.
V0. 4 is gonna be a big update for my standards. 5 new rounds, 3 stories that advance MC's relationship with MJ, with ramifications, depending on MJ's type (spoiled/friendly/reserved). Intro of 2 new characters and revisit of 2 old ones (Courtney and Helen). 4 animations, option menus that change the story outcome, proofread corrections by Osanaiko up to v0.36, bug fixes and new ...

Artwork how-to and v0.4 progress

Hey guys,

It's been a hot hot summer so far. I really hope you are enjoying it. In my case it's like Holidays in the Sun (1977) by the glorious Sex Pistols.

Paraphrasing it a bit, describes my case perfectly:

I don't wanna holiday in the sun
I wanna work on my new version
I wanna be ready for delivery
'Cause now I got a plausible story

Now I got a reason, now I got a reason
Now I got a reason and I'm still work...

Hey people,

looks like sweet summer is here. People seem to really want to go on vacation finally after two brutal corona years.

Every one I meet seems eager to escape to some sandy beach drinking mojitos and partying all day.

In my case, I don't feel the need to go on vacation. I really like my day job but also I love my hobby.

Now, about that: I'm really proud of the work I did these last two weeks. Most of the art is ready, including 2 short animations. I haven't stopped working on T...

TTBS v0.36 is here (Links)

Hey people,

The update is ready as promised. 

For those of you who missed the previous posts, as in the last update, the main story will not proceed. For viewing the new content, it's advised to reload a previous save from MJ's punishment or Helen's visit.

Now, I must warn you that it's a short update like the ones before. As I've repeatedly explained in the past, small but frequent updates might be a disappointment but for an unpopular...

Parkinson's Law

Hey guys, 

It's me again. First of all, I'd like to inform you that all is good. I'm pretty sure I can have the update ready, before the end of the month, as planned.

Anyway, I was talking with other devs and the following seems to be a common thing among us: 

We all have a rough plan of how the game/VN should proceed and based on that plan, we make each update. We impose a deadline, before which we plan to have ev...

News about the next Update

Hey guys,

Not much to report. I've been working on the next update v0.36 with nothing exciting so far. This update is focused more on Miko's and Amber's story. It will be ready before the end of this month.

These stories should close the 0.30 chapter. After that the main story, the side stories etc will progress with the 0.4. 

I can't wait to work again on Mercedes and Courtney plus the relation between MJ and MC.

Anyway, thanks again for the support all this time...

Version 0.35 is finally here (Links)

Hey good people, 

I've finally finished this new version. It came out as I wanted, although if I had a couple of weeks more, it would have been perfect. But I guess I'll find them in the future. 

Now, before we start, I must remind you that this version and the next, won't advance the main story. So, it is highly recommended to use a previous save. If you have one from the end of round 50 (when MJ gets punished by the MC) it would be per...

News update

Hey guys,

Everything's good, I'm still alive and working for the next update. But it's not going so fast as I hoped for. And this is because of various reasons good and bad: 

Bad: My day job was crazy this past few weeks.

Good: That gave me more money.

Bad: My old graphics card-less, HP Probook started overheating

Good: I finally had the mon...

Progress update for v035

Hey guys, I've really not much to report except that I'm working on the graphics right now for the upcoming update. It's coming up nicely so far. I'll try to include as many stories as possible. So far, Madison storyline has two new entries, Rwanda's and Amber's are also in my plans. It will probably be ready in 3-4 weeks. As always, feel free to comment. Stay safe.

A matter of hours

Hey guys,

It's been some time since my last post. V0.34 is almost ready. As I've mentioned in my previous post, this is mostly a technical update. Technical means that I added a lot of stuff to the game mechanics but few on the story progression.

First of all, in order to play this update and keep your previous saves, you have to start a save from Helen's visit (end of 0.33) or even a previous save from the end of 0.32 (MC punishes MJ). Any save b...

Working on v0.34

Hey guys. Ten days have passed already since the last update and I've been working non stop for the next one. 

Version 0.34 will be more 'technical' than story based. Let's not forget that it's a management game after all. So I've introduced MJ's  next occupation as a hostess in Burgundy Bistro with almost double pay.

Plus I've been working on a series (10 so far) of random auditions that vary from voice acting (cartoon,...

Round_stats - Can you help?

Hey Patrons, Subscribers, Followers and Friends,  I really hope you like MJ's story so far. 

I'm trying to collect some information and I could really use your input.

Since, I'm trying to fine tune the game stats, so the rest of the game won't be too easy or too hard, I'd like to see some of your stats from a round above 40.

A screenshot would be perfect, like the one I've posted here. If you run multiple sessions at once, send as many as you can. To more the merri...

TableTop BornStar 0.33 is here (Links)

This month is 2 days short... But I think I've made it on time. As always changelog will follow after the links and it might not be spoiler free. I think you'll like this update. Personally it's one of my favorites.

As always, it's not proofread yet (So far my editor was kind and fast enough to have it up until v0.31) so pardon my english.

Take note to keep your initial save because the following update will probably not advance the main story.

Hey guys, I hope you're untouched and away from all this crazy things that are happening.

The 0.33 is practically ready. I'm doing the sounds and music part now and I'll load it up tomorrow before the month ends, as planned. Until then, stay safe and make love not war.

Patron list

Hey guys. 

I'm pleased to say that I have finished two animated scenes for the next version. I think they are really hot but this comes as a personal taste, I guess.

Anyway, I wanted to include a patron list (present and former) as others have done so before me. I'll make it appear as an easter egg, in the beginning when the MC is checking his list of friends and clients. The only problem is that I don't know if someone doesn't want t...

Hey guys, 

Sometimes, it's difficult to see a blessing in disguise. I was working full time to be ready for 0.32. But I realized it was impossible to add the last story the way I wanted. Not willing to compromise on content, I decided to leave it for next time. It was a pity, because I only needed 2 days!

Then the worst blizzard hit! I mean tons of snow and wind! It was so sudden and terrible that hundreds of...

Hey folks,

What my VN has in common with artists like

They all changed their stage name at some point in their career.

So, following their example, as from the next release (0.32), your favorite tabletop VN will no longer be TableTopPornStar but TableTop BornSta...
