Hey! Took me forever to see this, but I only check in every now and then.
I'm not crazy about merch, but for supporting such a high quality indie game like this? I especially respect your writing, the topics that come from HH. So absolutely I'd be glad to have some kind of figure to represent that.
Per price, I agree with you that > $100 would be out of reach for a ton of people, but that's a decision you'll have to make yourself and there's no right answer - people have to get paid for good work, and you want good quality.
Personally I'm pretty well off, and a price point of $50-$75 is something I would be willing to take on if it means supporting your project, and getting some memorabilia while I'm at it.
