Crypto cipher used here is called Vigenere cipher: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vigen%C3%A8re_cipher
And it can be relatively easily broken: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vigen%C3%A8re_cipher#Cryptanalysis Known attacks is dated already from year 1893!! So no computer is needed, to crack ciphertext, just the pen and paper.

Thank you for bringing this issue to my attention.

I've been working on an AES version, but it's still glitchy and I just haven't had the free time to work with it. I've moved this to the AES milestone, hopefully at some point I will get a chance to implement these features.
