Try the Statial B. You can adjust it to meet almost any shape you need.
Note, it can be printed with an FDM, but it'll need a 0.2mm nozzle and really good tuning. Some of the parts were a pain to print for me

My main complaint is that the Statial B only has 2 thumb buttons, and I'd prefer to have at least 4. I've considered modifying the design of the relevant plate, but there's still the issue of not having ports to wire the switches to the raspberry pi it runs on.
I also have a ploopy mouse like the other commenter mentioned. It's definitely not a replacement for a G602 (that's also the mouse I used before switching to open source), but it gets the job done. I just need to buck up and finish assembling the Statial B
That is really cool. I think there's ways to get more switches on one port on Arduino but I don't remember for sure.
To tell the truth, I over simplified the description of why it's difficult. Part of the assembly is a couple of custom PCBs, one of which holds ports for cables that go to each button. That custom PCB is technically what runs out of room, though the side plate that holds the thumb buttons is also limited in space
