The author is updating the game a bit too quickly to keep up with proper protection removal.
So here's something experimental instead: a BepInEx plugin that will hopefully work for a few more updated versions. There's a caveat, however, it requires a valid patreon login. Just create an account and login with it when asked.
Extract the attached zip in to the game folder and boot up the game. Click on the Patreon Login button in the menu. Login with your patreon and authorize the game. Switch back to the game after the "CONNECTED" page and you will be recognized as a legendary+ supporter.
I am new to the BepInEx framework so I couldn't get everything to work straight away, hopefully in future versions I am able to re-route the checks altogether.
Edit:
Also very funny:
I'll have a proper look at this again when there's actually some content in the game.
Cheers,
