You know what? Forget the maybe.

There's definitely a puzzle in here. My first puzzle!

You have one week and, at least for the first days, I won't give hints.

Please don't spoil the fun for the others.

Have fun!

A few hints:

  • If you still don't know where to start, try going at the source of the problem.

  • A little poem:

Probably you managed to crack the sky
And now you're bathing in the starlight.
So, what to do now?
Thinking that It's Too Hard?
Everything you tried turned out to be wrong?
Be faithful, my friend.
In this short, little poem,
Now you will find your answer.

  • Don't stop changing.

  • Are you further along the road? Try to follow the path until you reach the end.

  • Stop staring at the road and walk in it.

SOLUTION:

  • There was a hidden link in the source of the page that brought you to a gif depicting the sky. The sky frame had a very long delay, and was hiding another frame with an 8-letter code.

  • That code, KntAnXey, was the ID of a Pastebin paste (see hint #2, the initials of every row). In the paste there was a series of binary chars.

  • With the text of the paste you had to do a series of translations: binary->hex->base64->hex->binary->plain text. The result was yet another imgur URL.

  • The image, depicting a road, was a png file. If you opened it with a text editor, at the very end, you'd have found a five letter code, the final reward, guiding you to the hidden giveaway.

Hope you had fun! See you next time!

Might it be a browser related issue. Nothing shines for me. Tried IE and Opera so far.

I don't know if that's a part of the puzzle but I didn't like the last picture I've seen. Need your advice because it might be a mere coincidence.

Could you tell us which game is it, Kappei? I have no clue what to do with last image, tried everything, would love to know if the game is worth the suffering :P

I don't even mind the game. Just play this for the puzzle's sake but I really have to ask him sth.

Same here but after one hour trying to figure out what to do with the image I'm starting to wonder if its worth lol. I want to know what to do harder than winning the game.

Kaitlyn would you help me with the question as Kappei doesn't seem to be around? One quick question.

I'll be away for the next hours, please try to solve the puzzle by yourselves, or wait for the hints in the next days. Oh, and you have a hint about the game in the first part of the puzzle.

Anyone else intensely suspicious of a .gif that doesn't move? Puzzle or not, that feel always unsettles me more than it should.

I am on the road. But despite seeing the road, I cannot see where it leads me. I tried to go a lot of different ways, but always end in a dead end.

The beginning of your voyage can guide you to the end. (yep, it's cryptic, but I really don't want to give too many hints right now)

I'm not an old-timer so I really do not understand where to look and what to do. All I ask for is to post solution after this puzzle giveaway ends.

The solution will come after the end of the giveaway, no worries.

Alas I end up walking along the path indefinitely. Wondering if there's ever gonna be and end. I hear a familiar chant around the trees. Something about a funny old meme but can't make sense of what to do with the chant. Haaalp! :P
