That's kind of the point. If you don't want to make the commitment to finishing the game, don't charge people for early access.
You could make hurt less by offering partial refunds -100% refund at 50% complete -20% refund at 80% complete And whatever's in between.
The entire point is to encourage the developer to keep making the game. If the developer stops developing or starts makes garbage their funding will be at risk.
The main concern is collections. If the developer runs away with the money, or just runs out of funds and can't finish and can't refund everybody, then yeah its kinda fucked.
