That's odd, did you check the book on the table? It's supposed to trigger a cutscene. If something went wrong, perhaps you could try to launch the game again and if it still doesn't work, maybe the browser version works better.
The corridor originally lead to another location, but because of lack of time we couldn't finish that area so we blocked it off. You didn't miss anything! We definitely need to fix that camera though.
Thank you very much for trying it out and giving us your feedback!
