I love the idea and execution of this simply because I find making myself practice vim commands to be the hardest part of learning vim, but $25 for a 6 month limited license?

I'm all about game developers getting paid for their work, but that seems crazy overpriced to me & really turned me off of the whole project.

If you consider the price in terms of the utility you'll get out of it I think that's a reasonable price. This book[1] is recommended up the page and that's $23 minimum.

Right, but you get to keep the book, not give it back after 6 months.
