Solution
So, frankly, not sure what went wrong. I came up with the idea for the puzzle maybe half an hour before I posted it. It was meant to be a bit challenging but no more than the ones in the guide. Oh well. I am sorry. I guess I’ll just use a nonogram next time :)
Bottom line: the number next to the game link is the base 10 representation of the five character giveaway code if you treat it as a number in base 62, and use 0..9, a..z, A..Z as the digits. There’s (at least one) calculator for that.
Maybe now the hints make more sense.
2025_10 == wF_62
4122223_10 == hint_62
2738317_10 == bump_62
And no, the puzzle has nothing to do with base62 encoding. Didn’t even know it existed…

Hello there!
I suddenly realized that it's 2025 (wF) and my birthday is coming up next week, but I'm too busy to throw a proper party like last year. So, here's a gib to celebrate the occasion:
Death's Door (522764608)
And just in case you're worried, let me assure you that there's no subtext - I picked this game only because I intend to play it myself 😎
Have fun!
I'll drop hints if needed
