Rewind 0.2.8

Rewind 0.2.8 adds client protection and a redesigned Steam sign-in return page.

• Checks for Cheat Engine, IDA, Ghidra, HxD, x64dbg and ReClass.NET during online and offline game sessions. Confirmed detection closes NBA 2K19 and the launcher identifies the tool to close before playing again.
• Detection uses specific process identities. Normal Java apps are allowed; Ghidra requires its own Java launch marker. The detected program is left running. There is no driver or background service.
• The Steam return page now uses the launcher's dark background, R + Rewind logo, and the message: All set. Return back to the launcher and close this tab. Success appears after Steam verification completes.
• Player packages no longer include Readme.txt.

Keep the 0.2.6 operator running; this release updates the launcher and its bundled client DLL. Existing game update receipts remain valid.

These are basic client process checks, not tamper-proof protection. Closing the game can lose unsaved progress. Server validation remains necessary.

Only the launcher executable is published here. Players on 0.2.5 or newer can use its updater. Players on 0.2.3 or 0.2.4 should download this executable directly, close the old launcher, and replace its portable executable once.

Validation: 364 launcher checks and 87 native protection checks passed. Protection tests used harmless fixture programs and a separate hidden fixture window; no live game session was launched or interrupted by this release process.
