"If some of the puzzles look familiar it's because I stole them"
You mean you "took inspiration"

Happy cakeday!
edit: for anyone just starting, it appears that the puzzle starts from the bottom game shown in the pic and each solve takes you to giveaway for the game above it (e.g. solving 1st -> psychonauts link, 2nd => content warning link, 3rd => nexomon link, and so on)
I just made it to Turbo Overkill GA (6th game). Really struggled from 3 -> 4 and even more from 5->6 lol. That's not to say they were actually more difficult, just that my brain wasn't on the same wavelength.
Anyway, for those just starting out, my advice so far is:
update: made it to Guardians. Back to being stumped lol

got 2nd one. no tools / technical stuff required for it (which ironically, I spent a good deal of time attempting that route to get to the first code before realizing I was vastly over-complicating things lol)... same concept as with the first code but different base

I don't think the order of the GA's or the level requirements are supposed to be any big secret. You can actually look at the level reqs even on hidden GAs just by clicking on the creator's profile (you have to guess which one is which but you can see there are x # of GA's and what each one's level reqs are). But I had a few minutes so I threw together a quick table w level reqs:
| Puzzle # | Game Ttile Unlocked by Solving | Level Req |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Psychonauts | 1+ |
| 2 | Content Warning | 2+ |
| 3 | Nexomon: Extinction | 2+ |
| 4 | Eternal Threads | 3+ |
| 5 | Starship Troopers: Terran Command | 3+ |
| 6 | Turbo Overkill | 3+ |
| 7 | Until Then | 4+ |
| 8 | Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy | 4+ |
| 9 | Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn | 4+ |
| 10 | Hogwarts Legacy | 4+ and (Region Restricted)* |
| 11 | Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 | 5+ |
probably not the news you were looking for if you're only interested in the very last one and not really into puzzles for their own sake but hope it helps anyway..
that said, while nono's are still my favorite, i've had a lot of fun with the puzzles in this event. they're challenging and i have to try a bit harder but still doable.
* I assume that the region restrictions for Warthogs Legacy are due to a key or something. I looked at the list of countries it was restricted to (read: ones that are allowed to enter) and it was a really long list with tons of countries including most everything in north america and europe and even china and north korea. List was like 10 pages of countries so I didn't do any exhaustive checks but I didn't see Russia listed so I'm not sure if that's the only one excluded but I am sure that I'm too lazy to check.

Thank you very much for the thorough reply, and yeah I already checked his profile and saw the levels but couldn't tell which giveaway is for which game.
Anyway based on this what's left would be 1 lvl5 giveaway, 2 lvl4 giveaways, 1 lvl 1 giveaway, and 2 lvl 0 giveaways, but those are probably not meant to be shared publicly considering how little entries they have so it's probably best to ignore them, so I guess there's a very tiny chance for Expedition to be lvl 1, but the most probable case is for it to be the lvl 5 one.

well, apparently I missed a few things. Not sure it will matter, but it looks like there is still a lvl 1 GA in there somewhere that I don't have accounted for. not sure yet if its part of this event or not tho.
edited my previous with the corrections / updates

Hi again. My account will be 11 in about 10 days. That's why I decided to make another puzzle train. 11 GAs for 11 years, I think it's fair enough. GAs are mostly some gabage but that's not my problem.
If some of the puzzles look familiar it's because I stole them.
I'm still too lazy to make proper hints myself, so please, share any hints with each others, just don't give direct answers or links.
Just to be clear: you can and probably should give each other any hints/clues/ways for a solution other than direct answers.
P.S. Feel free to ask me for anything related to the puzzles. I'll ignore you anyway, 'cause I don't speak English.
P.P.S. Almost forgot. Here's the list of GAs:
