Feedback, and year in review.

TO LONG DON'T WANT TO READ- I feel like I was lacking this year, and I'm looking for feedback for what you expect from me in 2025. What do you want to see improved and hope to see more of.



*Icky Sticky year in review- The past couple weeks I have been thinking a lot about my performance this year, and I can't come to a conclusion that is favorable. I was quite absent this year and was slow to accomplish a proper cadence of quality releases. While I feel I have valid reasons for my absence this year. A lot of people give me their generosity, and I should've been better than making excuses for myself.
I don't like to make promises, because I believe promises are meant to be broken, but I have thought of a few areas that were potentially holding me back that I was making excuses for.

Transparency on improvements-
- I won't go into all of my medical issues, but one of the main ones I have right now is a lower than average hormone level for a male my age. I originally had a doctor that hooked me up with Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT). He unfortunately had to step down because of his own medical issues, and I was shuffled to new doctors. I was optimistic. A team has to be better than a single individual, right?
The new doctors for the most part have been absent on improvement. My primary care is just a primary, but I was pushed to a specialist for the TRT. Unfortunately, in June, he requested I stop taking hormone replacement. It was under the idea to set a new base line so we could start doing new tests and set up a new program. My testosterone is as low as it was before I started TRT, and no new tests have been run for anything. I have spiraled back into the poor physical, and mental health comparatively to before starting TRT late 2023.
I don't say this to get "boo who" credits, or sympathy, but to get it out there on my push for improvement next year, and beyond. As of right now I sleep twelve plus hours a day because my body just can't recover. I go through these drastic ups, and downs of working really hard on projects, and then crashing down to where I spend most of my time just staring at the screen searching for the motivation to move forward.
I have two paths forward with this medical issue. I have an appointment on the 6th to talk to a new doctor that is an advocate for the benefits of healthy testosterone levels. If he fails to live up to expectations of getting me back on TRT... That leads me to a men's health clinic. Men's Health clinics specialize in getting males healthy and will correct my hormone issues. TRT from a doctor would be paid for with insurance, the clinic is out of pocket.

-At the beginning of this year I started doing my own sound design because I thought I could have more control and make a better end product. In part I still believe this is the case. Having full control over the sound design allows for better storytelling, and emersion to get my full idea across. As I think about it though, it was fun in the beginning, learning new things is fun, but I no longer enjoy doing sound design. I feel my sound design becomes very formulaic, and I don't have the drive to figure out how to fix that.
So, I will be going back to working with sound designers again. I hope to rekindle my partnership with EvilAudio again in the new year for the smaller looped projects, and I have a buddy that I will be utilizing for those longer form animations. So, I can still get those nitty gritty story/emersion audio ques, and I believe the quality will be better from someone that specializes in audio for all of my projects.
I believe doing audio has led to my detriment, because as a project got closer to being completed, I would dread needing to take the time to add audio to wrap a project up. I will be going back to just focusing on animation and telling stories moving forward. I will still be getting custom voice acting done, but leaving the sexy body slap noises to the pros.

These two things are what I identified as major issues for me at the moment. My body fighting against me at every turn, and doctors not seeing eye to eye to with me. As well as adding a new thing to the pipeline that I didn't really need to do to be creative.
Again... Could be perceived as excuses. I could have just sucked it up, and got the work done, but I don't have the willpower to push through at the moment. Just trying to be honest.

Sorry if this breaks the wall of creative/fan, but I feel like I should be more transparent, and open about things when I can.
Example... Jill pounded by the tyrant is in limbo at the moment. The animation is basically done, but I need another side of voice acting that hasn't come in yet, so I am not motivated to wrap it up, and... Still need to start the sound design.

*Feedback from you- I'll start off by saying if you have anything you want to say to me at any time. You can leave it in the comments. If you prefer not to speak publicly, my DMs are always open here on Patreon, Twitter, or Discord. Don't ever feel like you can't reach out to me to tell me what you need to. I never speak about private conversations publicly, and I am always open minded.

With that being said... I laid out a couple things that are giving me struggle to keep a proper cadence of releases, but I am looking for what you guys are expecting from me in 2025.

-I have a lot of futa ideas planned. A lot of non futa content as well. Aliens, monsters, and more fantasy creatures. The male orc I teased for the Baldur's Gate 3 babes for example as non futa. Maybe another Krogan's Plaything episode. I've been working on Chayanne with the imps in private. Hope to share something with them soon, and have started writing some stuff for Chayanne to meet some healthy futa amazon babes in the future.

-Maybe you guys have opinions on the original characters I am creating and would like to see some changes. Maybe they're not thick enough, maybe you think they are ugly, maybe you want to see something different?

-Is there a type of content you want to see more of? Longer form over the shorter animations. Examples would be, more Krogan's Plaything 2 over Alesha riding.

Any feedback on your feelings of IckySticky animations would be helpful. If I don't get any feedback. I'll just focus on the main issue of just not have a proper release cadence in 2025.

Leave a comment below or take it to DMs if you wish. I hope to hear from you.

*That will be all for this post. Going to be a rough year, and kind of a make or break it year in 2025. Feel like I am going to be digging out of a hole, but I am optimistic. The two current projects I have with Miranda, and the sexy dwarf with orc to start off the year, but as well as the smaller little projects I have cooking.

Thank you for the support this year. I'll try my best in 2025. Thank you.
