I personally don't mind buying chapter 2 when it releases as long as its a reasonable price (for me that would be around 10$ max, considering you can get a 50 hours game like HK which is also indie for 15 dollars(i got it for around 7 on sale), and i would essentially not even be buying a complete game, just a chapter of it), however having the kickstarter be merchandise and not a guaranteed game is extremely off putting for me. I loved the game but when funding a kickstarter for a game I want a game, not a plushie or a poster or whatever else. Wish you the best of luck with development.

Thinking about it now a more reasonable price per chapter would be 5 dollars, considering you'd have to buy 4 more chapters for a complete game considering chapter 1 is free. 20$ for a full game seems reasonable, whereas if it was 10 dollars per chapter that would be 40$ total which is really high for an indie title.
Those are all very good points! As for the Kickstarter, just to clarify, its purpose wouldn't be to fund the game anymore, but rather, it's just a place for people to buy merch if they enjoyed PK/PL ch1
We realize of course that not everyone is interested in merch, and that's understandable, but as things stand right now, we believe we would be setting this game up for failure if we fund the whole thing through a Kickstarter.
