Alexim: There was a further and very promising development of the situation.
MarkoH01 analyzed the solution found by one of the aforementioned developers and seems to have found the exact procedure to follow for the achievements to work properly, all using the Steam wrapper provided by GOG, or at least a version of it.
The procedure is very simple and reproducible, so much so that I could follow it even as a non-developer, and has already succeeded in getting the achievements of at least one other developer to work.
At this link you will find the necessary files and the exact procedure:

KamtiGames: So, it seems I finally did it. Achievements work, at least for me.
Thank you very much, Alexim and MarkoH01. Information was very helpful!
I am really happy, as I was thinking how to implement the achievements in the new game and now it's clear.
A lot of new players will enjoy achievements. I think I have to add you both to Credits section of the new game.
Yes, I can confirm that achievements do work in the latest build. I am glad that my information helped you making them finally work and I am looking forward to get them implemented for "The Book of Bandmaids" as well. Thank you for doing this.:)
However I also have two tiny complaints:
1) The last update apparently deactivated the unrated DLC (I can install the previous version with the DLC working fine but if I start Galaxy it will detect that there was a newer build and the moment I install the last build the DLC does not work anymore).
2) For the user to use the rollback feature on GOG you should never unpublish any builds as GOG is stating themselves
here:
"We kindly request that you do not unpublish any previous updates that have been published on the Master branch. This allows users to make use of the rollback feature in the GOG GALAXY client in case an update that has been published on the Master branch turns out to have been either prematurely published or exhibits major game-breaking bugs."
Because of this not being the case here I have to uninstall the game and reinstall it with the older installers and refusing the actual update to keep it uncensored and still have achievements work. So please correct the latest build with working unrated DLC and don't unpublish previous builds in the future :)
