It just wouldn't be the same unfortunately. Finding someone talented enough to match Xev's tone, and more importantly, graphical and animating ability would be incredibly difficult. Anyone that talented would likely just work on their own project with all the benefits that original, solo venture entails.
There may be many decent writers out there, but I have seen few if any 3dcg animators who are able to show body physics (or any physics/gravity at all) and movement as well as this dev. Not only that, but also including the impressive number of body physics animations per episode that Xev did recently? You would be looking for unicorn at this point. I just don't think there is large pool of talented animators matching these qualifications who are just waiting for Commissioner Porndon to light up the AVN bat signal so they can jump into blueballs fighting action for our Heart Problems benefit.
This theoretical 3dcg artist X listed above would rather have their own independent money faucet because if Xev ever spontaneously returned (however doubtful), then artist X's pseudo project and money faucet would quickly dry up.
I feel sad; the chances of this project continuing development seem slim.
To be honest, I think the story of
Heart Problems is quite mediocre, with the only highlight being Amelie . However, this is also remarkable because Amelie truly stands out—her unforgettable appearance, in my opinion, is only matched by Isabella from
Being a DIK.
If we set aside the aesthetic aspects and focus solely on the animation, it's true that the animation in
Heart Problems likely ranks in the top five on F95 for me. The only one I can think of that might rival it is
Flirty F. Overall, I don't believe the animation itself is an issue. I've seen part of the code, and the animation runs at 30 frames per second, repeating five times per cycle. If you have the patience, you could replicate the same effect, but for most people, that’s already a challenging hurdle.
I also agree that trying to continue this seemingly dead project purely out of passion might be a bit naive, unless one doesn't care about the income or the effort required.
