I have run unsuccessful kickstarter campaigns, and I think think this is the least depressing way to think about it.

Kickstarter is a way to validate your business model for no money and minimal time. You've just tested your MVP, and the feedback is that it's not what your customers want.

This is pretty valuable, since hopefully by talking to the people who backed your game (and the people here who wouldn't) you'll have a much better chance of making something that is actually wanted later.
