Any way to transfer save from GOG version to Steam version?

So I've been playing this game on a friend's system who has the GOG version. I fell in love with the game and bought it for myself on Steam. Now I'd kinda like to keep my old save, which is about half way through the game, I reckon. But I can't really seem to figure out how... or if it's even possible.

Here's what I've tried so far (to no avail, obviously):
-Located save file in GOG version ("Shantae and the Pirate's Curse.save" in the folder)
-Located save file in Steam version (steam folder/userdata/[my user number]/345820 (that's Shantae's number)/remote - there's the file that's just called "save", no extension, nothing.
-Tried copying the GOG save into Steams save folder, deleting the Steam save and renaming the GOG save to "save".
-Tried opening both in Notepad, copying data from GOG save into Steam save.

Everything has given me "corrupt save data" on startup.
I fear my computer skills are pretty much at an end here. Does anyone else have any other ideas? Pretty please? =)

There's an issue, this is a .exe packed port. I'm sorry my dude.

I mean, at least you now know how to go through the part that you already completed...
so it should be faster...

Yeah, I feared it would be something like that, but since save files actually exist and are seemingly not written into the game itself I hoped that maybe it would be compatible somehow. But alas, it wouldn't seem that way... unless someone comes up with a genius-solution.
Well, what can you do. There are worse things than having to play through Shantae again, I guess. ;)

Thanks for the heads-up, man.

Hey friends,

For anyone stumbling upon this, I worked on a project in the past few days to solve this exact problem, as I found myself needing to transfer my GOG save to Steam. The project can be found on GitHub for anyone who needs it:

On a side note, I wholeheartedly apologise for posting to a 7-year old thread - it's the only one I could find on this exact topic.
