All this in the compo anyways? Hah! Nice work :D
The directional mouse control was a bit overly sensitive, and I found myself getting a bit disoriented/turned around at weird moments. but overall everything worked pretty well. The crossbow bolt as a puzzle solving mechanic definitely has potential, and with a few moody sound editions the whole thing could be very atmospheric. Nice work!
Good entry overall!
