Cause they overscoped the promised project to something needed a Publisher, wasting months of time with an engine switch which make only sense in the case of preparing for a publisher pitch.

I think this is what I was getting at: they made some bad decisions. If I understand the original project/proposal (maybe I've got this very wrong), but they essentially just had to take an existing concept and build it in a new engine? That shouldn't be too much work, should it? Still a lot of work, but not something from nothing?
