Just a thought that torments me for a very looooooooooong time. How to hide an easter egg in an open-source game? I mean how to do it invisible for those who looks at source code…
Get inspired by CTFs! You might not make it invisible, but you’ll be able to hide it for a long enough time. You could hide code using some custom steganography inside of an asset, so that code only runs when that asset gets loaded. Then obfuscate the code that loads that asset so it doesn’t look important enough for anyone to check out. In my opinion the key here is to hide it for long enough, not forever :)

Not an easy feat :)
