I disagree, when I've backed KickStarters that have failed I've never wanted my money back. It's a risk, it's money I'm throwing away to help a project exist, and I'm aware it might not happen. To me, that's just fine.

I don't think people should avoid high risk projects, I just think they should avoid promising to deliver them. Like I said in an earlier comment, make the reward some novelty trinket, not the complicated, never-been-done video game.
