the player is given the powertrip.png image, if they close enough they can see greyscale black / grey stripes at the top right corner, those are ascii characters, running zsteg or a simple python script to decode gives the link: https://files.catbox.moe/r9c5sc.wav
the link allows to download a wav audio file, listening to it the player identifies that it’s sstv
