In the Sand Jewel Wonderland, you find a lot of disorder. Scrambled writing, letters all over without a care for rotation, and a lot of indirection. Okay, that was an exaggeration, as the letters are just quarter-turns off.

Rotation Cipher

Rules of the Inky Turtle

  • The turtle starts facing upward with its ink lowered.
  • move(x) moves the turtle x units in the direction it’s facing.
  • turn(x) turns the turtle x degrees counterclockwise.
  • up() makes the turtle lift its ink so that it doesn’t leave a mark when it moves.
  • down() makes the turtle lower its ink so that it leaves a mark when it moves.

What is This?

i = unk1
while True:
    i = i + unk2
    num = i
    distance = unk3
    while num == floor(num):
        turn(unk6)
        move(distance)
        num = num / unk4
        distance = distance * unk5
