It is an avalanche, you must escape as fast as you can, similar to a maze. Do not hit rocks for they'll knock you backwards like in real life and dogs/wolves will bite you stunning you for a bit.

Add an effect to the hero's model when he's sprinting.
Also maybe add some competition between the players by giving the character a "Throw rock" skill, which stuns the target.
And add some different modes, with more spells for the character.
And add more routes.
Maybe also add a snow weather.
A custom soundtrack could also be used.

Missing custom preview image: To add a preview image, resize the image to 256x256 or 128x128 using gimp and save it as .tga. Import the image and change its path to 'war3mapPreview.tga'.
Please change the suggested players to something more appropriate.

No author, no suggested players and a very lacking description.
Really I doubt this is of good quality, so please advertise it better.

Let me just tell you this, the description is even worse now.
Don't use "...", it makes the description look unattractive.
Use the template I linked you to.

Also this is the most ridiculous map I have ever played, there are literally no special elements, you're controlling a stupid peasant and by the way, you could have at least used a better model for the runners.
The map starts off without an intro, add a funny cinematic or something.
The wolves and stones push you back for some retarded reason, by which I mean you really weren't very creative with the idea, since when do wolves running down a mountain push you back constantly when you slightly touch them.

It's a neat idea, but it's horribly executed.
It needs more elements, it needs to make at least SOME sense.
Also there are no win/defeat conditions.
 
Wolves and stones push back to allow fairness and fun if you are creative, if not then you'll think its retarded. Maybe I will change the wolves though. Thank you for the review, will try to improve it.

Also there is a special thing about this map that sets it apart from other escape/maze maps is that it is more complex as well better triggering usually, and it uses knockback and stun systems.

Tested it again:

-The stun system is better for the wolves

Now for some suggestions:
  • Add a description for the map in the lobby (below the preview image)
    [*]Select the vacationer for the player in the beginning
    [*]Pan the camera to the unit when the game restarts
    [*]Add some different skills, like a short jump or a sprint
  • By adding skills you could also add a "Throw stone" skill, adding in some rivalry for the players, so that the players would slow each other down
  • Add different routes, not one straightforward line
  • Add a snowy weather effect to make it look more 'dramatic'
  • Add a short soundtrack to hype up the player
  • Make the leaderboard say "Dead/Alive" instead of "0/1", that way the title will be shorter and an explanation won't be necessary

Do the yellow ones, then I'll approve it.

can you give us some screen shots and some youtube links because honestly I don't think lots of people would be downloading this because it's lacking attention 2/5
