Well that's intresting , half of the characters are gone and almost all of the roadmap is gone too. Makes me doubt that this game will even come close to being "finished" . With how miniscule the amount of content that Mofu adds in each update , it will take years for the game to be something more than just basicly a tech demo that it is right now.
Most of those characters were placeholders, they didn't have any impact in the game's content if not a relevant one.
The same goes for the roadmap, since nothing was lost to begin with, there is nothing that can "delay" the progress at all.
The update pace would still being the same even if nothing of this had happened.
