Not *quite* as bad as kickstarter, but early access is a crapshoot. I've had pretty good experiences lately though - Across the Obelisk, Dyson Sphere Program, Tower Tactics Liberation were all worth way more than the purchase price even in early access. Wartales wasn't bad too.
This one I'd give it 6 months and see what they've done in the meantime, very much not worth the rather exorbitant price currently - it looks especially bad in comparison to inkbound, which is marked as a pre-alpha demo but is polished as fuck and not trying to get retail prices ( or any prices for that matter ).
