I hope the puzzle wasn't too difficult. Anyways good luck!
Intended answer: Caesar 7 shift cipher -> Deadfish interpreter -> ASCII to text converter

Not too difficult if I could figure it out 😅
Thanks!

I was giving too much attention to the poem, I thought "rot" was referring to Caesar 7 too at first (like rot-7 cipher or something).
Thanks for the puzzle btw ;)

It was encoded in rot-7 so it would have to be decoded in rot-19. The standard rot-13 usually works both ways since there are 26 letters in the alphabet.

Okay, I made it. :-D
Some weird coincidences:

which are all roman numerals.ppzppppzpppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppvkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkvkkkvpppppvpppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppv
looks like it's encoded for 7 segment displays, which makes no sense because it does not look like that at all, but by coincidence they picked an encoding with 7 in the nameComment has been collapsed.
I originally picked the number 7 at random. Although, I did notice the 7-segment display thing when I checked different cipher identifiers to make sure people couldn't just instantly look up how it was encoded. I didn't change it because I thought it would be good to have at least one red herring considering the fish theme. However, I didn't notice or consider the other coincidences you found.

It took me a while to figure out that it was triple coded.
What will be next? Quadruple coded? /jk

Well, I've learned a lot! 😄
Thanks for an interesting puzzle and giveaway. (And quite a nice poem)

ChatGPT actually wrote the poem I just edited it to work with the puzzle.

Finally got here with hints =)

Cool puzzle! I wouldn't have known to look for Deadfish without the last hint. When I searched fish in dcode, the only thing it pulled up was some other programming language called Blub.

Same here. Never heard of Deadfish before.

same here, never heard of deadfish language before. actually, dcode.fr did the second part by itself — I just added "dead fish" in the "Clues/Keywords (if any)" field of its cipher identifier.

I'm in! :)

Thanks for all the fish!

The first part I got after the first hint, but I'd never, EVER heard of the second one before, so I didn't get that until the third hint and the dcode's cipher identifier.

A bit late, but made it. Nice one. Should have read the 3 hint earlier, while I focused too much on the first 2

Hell yeah, what a nice suprise! Thank you very much! :D

I watched TeosGame play it and the game looked like a ton of fun, so I hope you enjoy it!

Yeah, I've seen a few streams as well and already was debating getting it.

I just finished it and had a lot of fun, so: thanks again! :D
