Wow, this is truly phenomenal. Very nice idea! I wish I would have had more time to work on it.

Solution: "Hello Steamgifts. The code you are searching is vPWkS. No bruteForcing required"
As you can see, I made a mistake in 'bruteforcing', sorry for that. As that mistake only affected capitalization I decided to not change anything to avoid giving additional hints.
Steps to solve it: First you had to separate the symbols using 2x2 squares. The red squares might help you to realize about that - http://i.imgur.com/2xaZWuk.png
You can see that there are 10 of those red squares, some of them crossed by a line, but the rest of the symbols are repeated only once or none. A good guess is supposing those are word separators. Guessing so, you already know you have a text composed of actual words (the ones crossed by a line were periods).
How to read those symbols then? This was the hard part. There are vertical and horizontal lines. Vertical ones represent dots, and horizontal ones represent dashes. That's it, in the end it was just morse, hidden by the fact that you can code the same letter in different ways, just reading the lines from top left to bottom right. - http://i.imgur.com/iAld3xN.png
Once you have the plain text, you can realize how capitalization works: if there is a line in the upper left corner of the 2x2 square (positions 1 or 3) it means that letter is capitalized
