Office monitor code
This code was discovered by taking a closer look at the animated binary code that is seen on a monitor at the NCG office in office. The code can also be found in the Hacker's Den in sewer.

Writing down the rearranged snippets in reverse order starting from column 5, you get the following text: in.metro.accident.red.text.binary.codes.false.true.birds.hammer.valley.behind
.
Although the columns repeat 4 times, the last part consists of columns 1-5, 16-17 and 1-10.
Sometimes, the binary encoding for c
has its first 2 bits separated from the other bits.
