I don't really understand the app development Kickstarters.
Especially if there is already two apps in the store and this is a sequel to a long series. If you're making more, isn't the economic incentive of having the app in the store enough for you to invest? Did you not make enough from the first two to get started on this?
I just seems to be a case where they'd like the money up front AND the money from the store. But Kickstarter page is a good way to get a bunch of cash at a premium (or even kicked in donations that don't want anything in return).
If you needed the money to fund development AND gave the funders a free copy/coupon code, then it could make sense. In this case, you're spreading the risk among the early customers, instead of taking it all yourself or needing investors.
