Recently I've seen news about adult swim games going delisted probably off steam, one of my fav games is published by adult swim games and I want to know what will happen to it, will steam strike it off my list even if I have it installed? Will I still be able to back it up and restore its backups? Will I still be able to matchmake through steam?

You can't see the store page anymore, that's it. I know because I own a delisted game that I don't even remember when/where I got, an astronaut FPS in zero-G asteroids or something. I can still install and try to play, can't actually play because it's multiplayer only and servers are dead.
