Mainly the community of Half-Life went totally insane with the Mike Shapiro tweet, the voice actor of G-man.

The image he's showing is an album cover for his music. WTF? Ok dead end. Done and gone.
Now, before we continue, put on your tinfoil hat
The album cover is this
See something in the window?
197
• The song is 3:17 minutes, which is 197 seconds
• The previous release window between the previous Mike Shapiro song was... 197 days
• 197 on the periodic table is ... Gold 197 is the ONLY in the list of 41 isotopes of gold that has no Half-Life (stable)
• Mercury -197 has an HALF-LIFE OF 3 DAYS
• The lyrics of his 3:27 song, Best long dog
What is the word at the 197th word?
• Last but not least, what happens if you put 1 9 7 on a clock ?
Now why would Mike Shapiro do this?
He did hint in the past he would announce a game he's been working on via twitter (during Alyx promotion, so another game)
His 2020 USGamer interview
And his 20th anniversary speech ".... waiting for the moment to speak"
And Valve has done ARG marketing campaigns in the past, "Alternative reality game" promotion. They did it for Portal 2
What do you think? Join me in full copium mode?

Code:
Among the best long dogs known to man
Among the best long dogs ever known
When your nose is wet you can paw the world
When your back gets busy there's no end to you
When your eyes get shiny and your coat is black,
You're the best dog known to man
The best dog in the world
There's a siren song from the cabin
When it's locked tight, long dogs will flop
Have chugged remains and a nod on ball,
That's the work of the best bad dog of all
Sure the best dog, dog known to man,
Can't tell a dog paw from a man hand
Foot starts stomping and the roots don't grow,
Cause the best dog known knows a do-si-do
You're the best dog, best dog known to man
Best not to be a squirrely red hand
You're the best dog, best dog known to man
Every dog around getting with the same plan
Your eyes get shiny and your coat is black
You're the best dog known man
The best dog, dog in the world
There's a siren song from the cabinet
When it's locked up tight, long dogs will fret
Half chewed remains and a knot on ball
That's the work of the best bad dog in all
But you're the best dog, dog known to man
Can't tell a dog paw from a man hand
But it starts stomping and the roots don't grow
Cause the best dog now knows it does, you know
You're the best dog, best dog known to man
I listen up to these squirrels here and here
The best known, best known, I'll go to me
Every dog around, I'll get you in the state of mind
The best dog, I would say to me
The very best known to man, dog
Yeah, talking about the best dog
What is the word at the 197th word?

His 2020 USGamer interview
[There's] a different project that I worked on last summer and fall, which involved a considerable amount of motion capture. What's interesting to me in that is you won't see my face, but you'll see every gesture and emotional inflection, physical inflections, and then they'll map it, obviously. I mean, they put a million dots on my face. The knowledge that you've got that much nuance to work with, to say nothing of the fact that you have the actual physicality, is really neat.
I was working on that game for quite a while before I knew [what it was]. There was a rehearsal and some recordings, and after one of the recording sessions I was having a drink with the director. He told me what the game was, and nobody knows that this is coming.
I'll announce it on my Twitter feed when I'm allowed to—I'm trying to be circumspect even as I speak with you about it—but this is going to be such a mindblowing re-up from what people have come to know. It's going to really... it's going to make people have a complete re-understanding of what they thought they knew about the story in the game prior to it, and I don't even know if people are expecting it. It's going to be kind of a blast from the past.
And his 20th anniversary speech ".... waiting for the moment to speak"
And Valve has done ARG marketing campaigns in the past, "Alternative reality game" promotion. They did it for Portal 2
Portal ARG
On March 1 and March 3, 2010, Portal was updated to feature parts of an eventually highly successful alternate reality game (or ARG) to promote its sequel, Portal 2. The ARG was created solely by Portal 2’s development team; there was no marketing team behind it. While it mostly promotes their...
