I made another Density puzzle. This one is a bit simpler than my last one in that it has less steps, but at the same it feels a bit harder (though I can't judge that accurately as the creator). Here it is: enter image description here

Solution: (8,8)

Hint 1:

The background colors are not arbitrary, as @Jens so brilliantly realized. In fact, they are very specific.

Hint 2:

To solve the dots, remember that Morse code has very specific rules for its use.

    Rot13(Oernxvat qbja rnpu bs gur guerr pbybef vagb gurve ETO pbzcbaragf tvirf ahzoref juvpu bayl unir qvtvgf orgjrra mreb naq gjb.) Is that significant? – Jens Dec 19 '19 at 01:18
  • That is exactly right. Good job! – Aaron Miller Dec 19 '19 at 01:21
  • I have to ask because of "steganography" tag - is there a message in "dots", and only "dots" are enough to create half of solution? – Jan Ivan Dec 19 '19 at 14:37
  • The steganography tag is there because the answer is "hidden" in the image. To answer your question, however, yes, the dots are just a part of the solution. – Aaron Miller Dec 19 '19 at 15:19
  • Really can't tell if the dots are unevenly positioned or if it's one of those brilliant optical illusions. – Rand al'Thor Dec 19 '19 at 17:35

    They are uneven, but that was just laziness on my part; it's not a clue in any way, shape, or form. – Aaron Miller Dec 19 '19 at 21:01

Solution is:

Untitled document

First part:

Morse in dots, where one black dot means "dot", and three is "dash". Three white dots are separator - UNTITLED

Second part:

What Jens found was close. Colours in this order as RGB are:
222,10,112
2,202,110
11,111,201
Which is in base-3 letters: ZCNBTLDMS
With shift by one (or caesar cipher +1) it is: A DOCUMENT

  • You got it! However, you didn't need to do the shift. It may be different from how other people do it, but when I make puzzles, 000 = A and 222 = _. – Aaron Miller Dec 20 '19 at 13:00
