Mike Panayides developed core gameplay systems and immersive environments for the Mysterion83/Collaborative-Game-Development-MCM431 repository over a three-month period. He implemented modular puzzle mechanics, including interactive buttons, pressure plates, and timed levers, using C# scripting and Unity’s prefab architecture to enable rapid prototyping and scalable scene assembly. Mike expanded the game world with new kitchen and basement areas, integrating 3D models, materials, and environment art to enhance player immersion. His approach emphasized reusable asset pipelines and maintainable code, supporting cross-team collaboration and efficient iteration. The work demonstrated depth in Unity engine workflows, object-oriented programming, and asset management without introducing bugs.

April 2025 — Two major features delivered and world expansion to enhance immersion and exploration. Kitchen Scene upgrades deliver oven interactions, burning state management, and visual/material enhancements; Basement and World Expansion adds Dumbwaiter Room, Torture Room visuals, new wine cellars, and related kitchen-room adjustments. All changes are integrated into main test scenes, improving environment consistency and gameplay depth, with assets updated for better visuals and performance.
