i was thinking u might start off with a tilt panel and progress from there, but far be it from me to discourage u from jumping in the deep end :) Regarding the LED circuit, i would have used spdt switch to alternate the power between a wire for orange modes and a wire for blue modes. The colures themselves could b achieved by using regular tricolored LEDs with the correct value resister/resisters going to each leg in order to get the colure u want. You could save yourself time by using a potentiometer on each leg initially to find the required resistance. hope that makes sense without a diagram. i will concede my solution will require rather more soldering. best off luck.

I'm thinking a turret detects movement, talks, opens and maybe shines a laser pointer would be cool... I'd also like to add the button change sounds if I have enough room on the trinket. They supposedly excel at sound generation.. I started with just white LED's... then decided I wanted the color change. I'm curious how someone else would get the blue and orange light effects without a microcontroller and RGB lights. Separate LED's with gels covering them?... much more work than this. (and I switch my lighting on and off wirelessly)

Awesome! you'll have to do all the other test chamber complainants now and make a working chamber :) If you'll forgive the criticism, i thought the arduino and neopixels where perhaps a bit overkill for a binary lighting effect. That said the arduino would come into its own if you were to make a working chamber. anyway nice job.
