In general keyboard handling seems problematic with this game:
also 'P' (Pause) works just randomly and misses many keypresses...

Very old installer 1.40 didn't crash...

Changing some WinUAE settings (Expansions: Hardware vertical blank OFF, and Hardware sprite emulation OFF) seems to magically solve the issue and doesn't crash anymore pressing ESC.

I'm currently using these tooltypes to start the WHDLoad slave:
Type: NewIcon
  SS: 25960
  IT: Project
  BP: 3,0
  SZ: x= 3, y= 4, w= 5, h= 5
  DT: (YES) WHDLoad
  TT: (YES, NEWICON)
  SLAVE=apidya.slave
  PRELOAD
  (DATA=data/kaiko)
  ExecuteStartup=C:uae-configuration cachesize 0 immediate_blits true cpu_speed real
  (ButtonWait)
  Config=BW
  (NoCache)
  PreloadSize=4271419

My current WinUAE cfg that solved the issue: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B-sHjRQMUHT7WHQ0aW9Sa3hHVmM

I'll try to rebuild the slave from source, there are a few bugs open, worth a fix
