Challenge Description

HELP ME PLEASE...I'm stuck-in-a-videogame :'(( I don't know how to get out! గితుబ్

Solution

1. The challenge description included some funky looking characters that look like some sort of emoji గితుబ్.
2. Put those "emoji" into Google and it will return GitHub as the first result — this is the clue.
3. Use GitHub's search feature with the next clue stuck-in-a-videogame and it will return the repository https://github.com/ctfwhoami/stuck-in-a-videogame.
4. Clone the repository locally using git clone https://github.com/ctfwhoami/stuck-in-a-videogame.
5. Iterate through all commit code and get the flag.

git --no-pager log --patch | grep -o "NYP{.*}"
