Hacking Challenge (CRYPTOGRAPHY) - Elitas - Mar 12, 2017
Decided to make a small little maze-type quiz. Shouldn't be incredibly hard, parts of it will make you think but it does end up getting very hard but I do have a few extra paths to take where you'll get hints to make it easier.

TBH, was hoping for it to be plain text in that image somewhere. I'm stuck already.

Don't worry, it gets easier.
I think the ending is just a really boring task which doesn't really test knowledge, so I'm going to change that right now, but keep thinking about the image, it's not too hard.

I am stuck here too tbh :P I have some ideas though, it has only been a few
minutes for me.
Elitas, can we use this as a discussion thread to kind of help each other if we
want?

Pretty sure he knew that, but like if you type that into the URL, it just comes
up with tons of characters, not an actual image. I suppose you have to use a
program to put it together?

It should come up with an image.
If it's tons of characters then save those as a .jpg
