The game's optimization has received significant criticism, with many players reporting severe frame drops, stuttering, and crashes, particularly in later levels or during intense action sequences.

- “Overall great game with huge Hotline Miami influence but suffers from optimization issues that will be fixed.”
- “Performance is a little rough and needs work, but everything else about the game is amazing.”

- “The performance is so bad; 99% of frames were 20 in medium settings 2K with everything off including anti-aliasing. I have an RTX 3080 and Ryzen 7 5800X, so it's unlikely to be my PC. I'm not going to refund since the beta worked perfectly, but I don't recommend it now until they fix the performance issues.”
- “This is an excellent game held back by awful performance issues that make the breakneck reactions that the game expects from you totally unfeasible.”

The story of "Anger Foot" is a comically absurd and straightforward narrative set in the chaotic "shit city," where players take on the role of Anger Foot, a character on a mission to reclaim stolen footwear from criminal gangs. While the plot serves primarily as a loose framework for the fast-paced gameplay, it is infused with dark humor and quirky characters that enhance the overall experience, making it engaging and entertaining despite its simplicity. Players appreciate the humor and world-building, though some feel the story could be less intrusive and more seamlessly integrated into the gameplay.
- “Somewhere along the way you realize the story that's a joke is actually fun and engaging and somehow kinda' moody, and you start to get 'into it', with the hectic action, awful but lovable cast of characters, dark, vulgar but somehow witty humor, all along to an insane gabber soundtrack pulsing at the forefront, you just feel the vibe this game has going for it.”
- “The story of your lad, one Mr. Anger Foot, who has all his prized footwear stolen by the city's most notorious criminal gangs and goes on a rampage through the entire city to get them back.”
- “The story is hilarious and the characters in the environments are also hilarious; you're literally in a city called 'Shit City' where all crime is legal and everyone is in a gang.”

- “Imho: I don't really get why the devs bothered with the story. To such a degree, I think it would be better to not have it and just tell the story by playing the game, as many other games have done before.”
- “The story of Anger Foot is simple and quite fitting for a stripped-down shooter: you are Anger Foot, the only independent criminal in... uhm... 'poop' city.”

- “The only complaints are bad replayability and performance issues.”
- “So, such replayability is created for this audience to improve their score on the current level.”
- “You can also go back and do challenges or do challenges on the fly to add to replayability again (some challenges are not that satisfying in my opinion), but also it helps unlock additional sneakers that can change up play style and help with star challenges in each level.”
