I'm specifically looking for the latest version, that released 2017/09/01 with all the bugfixes.
I'd like to try to crack the game open and see if a translation would be possible.
I don't want to make promises because this might just end in a hopeless bruteforce attack for a week, but I was actually able to get information from the demo files already. The .dat files seem to include .mpd .evd .mrd .txd .efd .png and .wav files.
The .wav and .png files have full XOR encoding, the other ones actually have a bit at the start that is repeated and plain and might give some hints to the required XOR key. (41 F1)
I didn't pursue further because that would be a lot of wasted time if I don't actually have the game.
Edit: Huh... I had an AI agent try random stuff in the background while making the thread and it actually managed to get readable files out already. Seems like there wasn't actually a serious attempt to lock the files, just a weird engine structure.
If the full game uses a similar structure this "should" actually be pretty easy.
