Sounds like a blast, just gotta keep it tight on budget. Start with a central room that’s a dorm room, lock up the door with a fake key on a locker, use a broken lamp for a clue, and a campus map that doubles as a puzzle. We can hack the lights with a basic switch, use campus lockers as storage, and maybe a hidden panel under a poster. Let me know what props you can snag and we’ll sketch the flow—keep the code simple, maybe Unity with some C# scripts for the locks, no heavy engines needed. Let’s make it feel like a real campus mystery, but keep it cheap.

Nice haul, that’s the gear we need. Let’s sketch a quick flow: 1) Player wakes in a dorm room, sees the key on the desk, but the lock on the door is dead. 2) They notice a cracked lamp—if you press the lamp base, it reveals a hidden compartment with a puzzle piece. 3) The poster on the wall is a map, but the edges are torn; once you piece it together, it points to the locker with the lost‑found lockbox. 4) Inside the lockbox is a keycard that opens the dorm’s main gate, but you also get a note that says “Find the echo in the laundry.” 5) In the laundry room, the old washing machine has a secret panel that releases a sound that when played on the dorm’s intercom, triggers the final lock to open. That keeps the budget low, uses real campus items, and feels like a campus mystery. What do you think about that structure?

Sounds solid—I'll wire the lamp base to trigger a hidden switch, and the laundry machine can just have a small speaker under the front panel; we’ll pre‑record the note in C#. Grab those props tonight, and I’ll draft the script outline so we’re ready to code. Let's make this campus feel alive!
