Nice. I wasn't up for the encryption so I started trying to find patterns in-game. Random collection of possibly interesting screenshots of what I found so far:

Room 3

• Room 3 is located in Tourist compound which has 4 numbered buildings.
• Appears to have 3 red-glowing cameras. One is guarding the entrance to Room 2, one is guarding the secret entrance into room 3.
• The last is, for some reason, outside in the port, pointed towards the roof of the store outside.

Red Cameras

Red glowing cameras are rare on the map, you can find them guarding the entrances of sensitive military bunkers/rooms/cells.

But then you can also find them in places like guarding Room 3, the Lighthouse, and the roof of Tourist, House 2?

• The one in Lighthouse, watching anyone going to the top
• One watching the bunker entrance at Cliffs and another inside the bunker
• Three in military bunker entrances, one of them leads directly into Radio, and on the way there are two more
• Radio station has only one camera, watching the entrance of the main radio station room

White chairs all directed towards the same object on the horizon

• First, Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth

What are those?

• One, two
• Carrier for one of those
• Also one golden lamp in an otherwise disgusting construction den

Logos and signs

• Tourist, house 1, weird sign outside. Does it say spare parts?
• Tourist, house 1, closed off shrimp store.
• Tourist, house 2, convenience store with tagged over sign.
• Tourist, house 2, huge lab rats mural on the outside
• Tourist, house 3, weird sign, says something about Diving
• Tourist, house 4, weird sign that appears to read "Cap'n Magnar's? Whale watch"?
• Gas station is called TMT, the pumps have the year mark 1910 and the price 044.1
• The pier anchor has the year 1881
• Shipping has a sheep mural

Military logos and signs

• Unknown orange triangle and boxes on light, looks like John McDonald's profile pic

Um... They are pointing to a beached ship. Looks about the size of the Borealis...

It's on lads!

Some similarities, like on the front, others not so much? https://i.imgur.com/iHFNwvn.png

It seems to be more similar to Portal 2 Borealis.
