Nice game, really like @samoatesgames idea of multiple players at once on this game could add for a competetive element

@samoatesgames Thanks for the idea. At least I must experiment it in post compo version (if it'll be ever made).

I really wanted to save the other humans and push them around in the shopping cart!

solid entry right here! I love those animations, just beautiful! as a low bit pixel artist this game is awesome!! I love it.
Okay, little bit about the game: I got to level 10. only thing that needs improving is the audio :D other than that it's perfect. good job!

@tulipekoni thanks you man. It was my first attempt to draw a pixel art, glad to hear compliments here. As for audio I know that it sucks but because of it I don't participate in Audio category ;)

#### Gameplay
* Animations and movement feel very good
* Id like more interactions with moving objects not just avoiding zombies
#### Graphics
* Very good minimalistic art style
* You can clearly see everything and the graphics is not messy (its common issue in jams)
* Maybe it needs a bit more different background and object sprites
* Animations are dynamic and give the feel of movement not just shaking
#### Theme
* The room gets smaller
#### Overall
* Cool graphics and animations
* Interesting gameplay with unique features
* Random generation is good but you need more objects

Cool idea! Pretty good execution. The only bad thing that comes to mind is that the visuals are not varied enough.

@freezedice @antonsem Thanks for great reviews! I really wanted more content for the game (various monsters, npcs, objects and environment tiles) but did not had a time. Maybe in post compo I'll add all I wanted.

Очень крутая игра) Особенно порадовало, что тележкой можно толкать зомби в лаву. И женщин тоже можно толкать, но они и так не кусаются. До 10-го уровня ни разу и не дошел, но подумал, что дополнительные жизни можно было бы давать за каждую спасенную женщину: челлендж тот еще.
Добавь скриншотов и описания, а то народ может не заинтересоваться одним лишь названием. Удачи!

Love the animation. And yeah more content would be nice. It's also quite random in the current state? Sometimes it's just impossible for the player to survive because of how the lava spreads.

Really good concept.

Literally running out of space, just sometimes it's not *running* but patiently waiting in a corner. :wink: The gameplay only felt active in the later levels I played (I got to level 9), early on I just went to a place and waited. In fact I just beat the first two levels by not moving at all as I am typing this.
Nice wiggly walking animation on otherwise static sprites, a good example of making a static thing more dynamic. Cute minimalist style, balance of grey and yellow for the background isn't very pleasing though. The music works, though the loop could've been longer with some more variation.
Nice job!

Really cool game! And really crazy with lava and zombies.
Is it randomly generated or have you build the levels by yourself?
Because it has a really fair gameplay feeling but the tiles looks random placed.
I love especially the funny walking animation. :D
But I have one advice for you. While I'm playing I didn't know when would be comming the 10th level because I had no relation to it. Would be nice if the player could see a progress.

Would be really cool if you could control multiple players on the same keyboard and push each other into the lava :D
