Here you go:

Voted.Anyone asked the devs whether they would be interested in selling game on GOG?
They are interested, but think there must be voting of some kind on community wishlist for gog to accept the game.
edit: Here as well:

Apart from big AAA games, GOG decides to launch game on their platforms based on the popularity of the game. We do hope to be available on GOG one day - but I guess there have to be some requests from the players.

Where do you see they are saying GOG rejected the game?
They think wishlist is a greenlight thing here or more likely they only want to release it here if there is a major interest.

Looks like someone took the time to explain that to them but there was no response:

Maybe they're counting on gog communities peer pressuring gog staff - because they are rejected before. It's quite possible all these "it's niche" crap from gog staff comes from community wishlist actually being a steam greenlight alternative.... and if staff sees some activity there going to indies/what the heck, then maybe we should look at community wishlist more closely.

Ask them to release the game on itch.io or humble or fireflower or any other store that provides DRM free games.

alternatively, there are many DRM free games on steam, this might be one of them - http://steam.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_DRM-free_games

Because it's still unfinished ?

I think Gog is waiting for the properly patched version .

edit : here's a negative review

Wouldn't be the first time GOG refused a game on the basis of QA (even though they've released plenty that should have been rejected on those grounds).

Too lazy to track them all down, but there have been questions about GOG declining on a number of grid-based dungeon crawlers over the past month.
