great game running on a dell laptop it is great!!!!

Great game is great! Thank you for the great comment! Love that it worked on your laptop :) 

bout to try game might not run on my system lets see!

Cool game!

By the way - I would love an option to 'auto throw when gun is empty' so that I can easily just play with WASD as well as just 2 mouse buttons - when there are 3 important buttons on the mouse it gets a bit awkward for me with the fast pace! Cheers

Thanks for the input regarding the input. I'll pass the suggestion on to the team.

TL;DR: This game is perfect for people who want a Hotline Miami-esque ego shooter. Its fast, has a driving soundtrack and a variety of tools to fit your personal playstyle. And shoes! And who doesn't love shoes.

Anger Foot is what you get when you take Hotline Miami, change the perspective from Top-Down to Ego, use a 3D-Cartoon Artstyle instead of Pixel Graphic, and switch out the Synthwave for Rave Music. 

This is not me saying that Anger Foot is a total Hotline Miami ripoff, on the one hand, because I don't like the word ripoff, on the other hand, because Anger Foot has its own identity as a game already so that Hotline Miami can be best described as an inspiration and not as a blueprint.

For example, the "One Hit = Death" policy of HM doesn't apply to Anger Foot. You die from one melee hit, sure, but you can take two shots before you go down, except for when you get hit by the full blast of a shotgun.

This brings me to the enemies: Anger Foot has around 10 distinct enemy types, which all die in one hit, none of the overpowered and all unique. The most common and the earliest introduced are the bat crocodiles and the pistol fish, but there are also foes that use more ways to fight than simple hitting and shooting.

You will probably do a fair bit of shooting yourself, in fact, all guns of the enemies are available to you. There are four guns in total. You have the pistol, which is your slow but accurate option, the SMG, which fires fast but is not accurate on distance, the shotgun, which spreads but has a short range, and the plunger grappling hook, which is not really a gun, because it's shot a grappling hook that pulls enemies toward you.

All guns work as you imagine and all of them have their place in gameplay, my least favorite being the shotgun because while it spreads, it has the slowest firing rate, which is quite disadvantageous in the later levels where you have to fight more than five enemies at once in close spaces at some points.

Speaking of slow, while there is no highscore system, the game counts how many enemies you have killed in a level and how long it did take you to complete it.

Some of the unlockables are explicitly tied to your best time. These unlockables come, fitting to the title of the game in the form of shoes, which give you special abilities, comparable to the masks in Hotline Miami.

These shoes are unlocked by earning medals, essentially the achievements of this game. You get these for beating levels in a specific time or killing a number of enemies with headshots or exploding barrels, among others, which of course adds to the replayability of the levels, next to the rush and the need to beat your best time.

I only got one pair of shoes so far, the Air Violence, which fill up your gun with every kill. By the way, the devs totally missed the chance to call them Pumped Up Kicks, just saying.

When this seems to you like an ability with zero upsides, then because I didn't mention the attack which this game owes his title from, the kick.

The kick kills every enemy with one hit and is also the only way to open doors and therefore the only way to get through the levels. You can kick everywhere at any time, given that you are still alive, which is very useful when you ran out of ammo or are otherwise more inclined to melee. One enemy type even can only be killed by a kick attack. It is possible to get through all levels with just this attack, which I can see myself doing someday, because jump-kicking in this game is so darn fun.

The only other attack besides the kick is throwing your guns, however, this just stuns for a short time the enemies, so you have to kill them off otherwise. Never really used it that much, but its there, so if you into that stuff, go for it.

If you ask yourself why I have not mentioned the plot of the game till this point then this is because the game hasn't one. Maybe some very minor enviormental storytelling and there is a sequence teasing at a narrative at the end, but otherwise, you are just one guy going into sewers and apartment buildings to kill the partying crowd.

To be honest, I don't need more story than that, but I am still curious if they will add a full narrative in the full release, just because Hotline Miami started out relatively senseless, but had so much more under the hood and I would like to see that again.

But that would be all. Other than the fact that it is a bit too easy to camp behind doors and wait for enemies to come to you, which is counteracted by some enemy types, I don't have much to criticize.

Honestly, add an online leaderboard and you would already have a solid 3 bucks game to publish on Steam.

Not to long - totally did read. Thank you for all the kind words and suggestions. I'm totally passing on the leaderboard and Pumped Up Kicks suggestions to the team.

Thank you, I appreciate that. Also, tell them to keep up the good work :)

Will do!

Wow!

Indeed!

I love the game but I noticed If you jump at the same time as kicking you suddenly kick with 2 legs, don't know if its meant to be that way as like meant to represent kicking from the side and my pc is just slow or if its by accident, i got a couple laughs out of seeing it though! I'll see if i can get pictures

(1 edit) (+1)

im pretty sure its supposed to be a drop kick!

(+1)

Fantastic game! Need multiple save files please. Btw, where is the save file located?

(+1)

this game was crazy fun! Looking forward to revisiting it in the future! 

Thanks for the upload - gave your video a like on Youtube. 

Dear creators,

 I love the game unfortunantly I did not have enough money do pay but i think you should keep it up and wish you the best.

We love that you love it. Thank you for the encouraging words. 

Would like a v-sync function or frame limit as the game wants to max out the GPU with more frames than are needed. But I really love the game, excellent music, art and gameplay.

Thanks for the positive feedback - these are things that I'm sure the team will add/attempt to add as the game reaches it's final form.

(+1)

Wow this is such a fun game keep up the good work

The good work most certainly continues - thanks for playing :) 

It would be good if you could shoot pigeons legs just to kinda stun them before you kill them. Then you would have time to fight them all.

Interesting! Thanks for the suggestion.

Oh should have a vending Machine in the levels, so each starting level or in-game you have a ticket system to get a random item, or choose it of your own choice

(+1)

What kind of things would you expect to see in the vending machine?

Gracias por los comentarios positivos.

I got another suggestion, so when the final version is release with the music you should have it on a mp3 players with tapes or something, just thinking out of my mind.

(+1)

Keep the thoughts coming - we love great suggestions.

Linux version not working :<

Thanks for letting us know - although I have seen a bunch of other Linux users have no issues. Can you tell us what version you're running? 

(i think he means what distro like linux mint ubuntu or debian for example)

Yup - what you said! ( apologies I'm a Linux noob and this version is untested so we really appreciate all the Linux feedback )

i used linux to set me a chalange how long i could last with linux but then i ran into a hole tub full of problems so i switched back to windows

(+2)

hey well thanks for playing anyway. 

I flipping love this game.  Is there a way to adjust the resolution of the game?  Or edit graphic settings?  I'd like to run this at 4k.  Currently, it defaults to 2560x1440.

Game looks fun, but crashed after trying to adjust volume settings and now won't open. Doesn't seem to start the actual game process, just starts up a runtime broker and fails to launch. This occurs even after restarting my computer and redownloading/rextracting the game.


EDIT: I WAS ABLE TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE BY TURNING OFF ONE OF MY TWO EXTERNAL MONITORS. I ALSO RENAMED THE .EXE AND DATA FOLDER BUT THAT SEEMED TO HAVE NO EFFECT.

Thanks for letting us know - I'll pass the information on to the team. 

Not a problem! It should note that the game operates very stably (even with both monitors on) now. I wish I could provide you more info to help with a recreate. It's a super fun game!

Probably one of the best games I've played so far this year, so raw and simple yet so satisfying, felt like a semi god while delivering anger and havoc in these levels ! 

Just the fact that I could boot the game, raise hell and leave while still feeling so satisfied with the gameplay experience shows that something is bheing done here and it is being done very right. 

Also, people are comparing this game to Hotline Miami but honestly I feel a different kind of energy and artistic direction that deviates from Dennaton and delivers a much more raw and simple experience, something that it's desperate needed in this kind of games ! 

But are you planning on releasing new levels ? Also, was the OST made by the devs or by a traditional artist ? The menu theme has been in loop in my head for days now ! 
 

Thanks for the awesome feedback and comments! Yup the music was done by Free Lives very own super talented - Jaybooty. There aren't any updates planned for this itch version, but hopefully a Steam version further down the line.

Amazing game, only thing I feel like is needed is more health. But overall very cool.

Thanks for the suggestion

An amazing really liked first time I have fun while playing in some difficulty it is an overall 10/10

Wow! 10/10! Thank you :) 

(+1)

I haven't had so much fun in a long time. Kinda reminded of 2010 when I was playing mw2. Would like tho if the character had a bit more health. Because it feels like you die very easily. Played it for around an hour and loved it 😇

An hour well spent! Thanks for the feedback.

(+1)

Fast paced and difficult. I love it. 5/5

(+1)

Sounds like you're describing my last relationship. Thanks for the feedback :) 

(+1)

bro i love this game but its kinda hard even from first level

Thanks! How's the difficulty feeling after a couple more plays? 

(+1)

still hard

(+1)

5*. It's like an FPS Hotline Miami. It's also been updated loads since I first played it on Windows - tried the Linux build last night and was impressed with how far it has come.

(+1)

Nice to see it working on both platforms! Thanks for the feedback

Amazing game guys, its simple, fun and in harmony in all aspects, how much did the development process took. Did you work on it full time?

(+1)

The game was initially made on a farm as a 7DFPS entry by Robbie FraserLuc WolthersJem Smith, and Jason Sutherland of FREE LIVES.

Hey, I've been just absolutely loving this game but today it stopped working, and any time I try to open it                        I just get this before it crashes. Ive tried troubleshooting it myself but to no avail, but I have meh technical prowess (none when it comes to unity) and was hoping for some help so i could be kicking doors and kicking ass again asap.

That's bizarre. I suppose the logical suggestion would be to try a reinstall and or try using the itch app : https://itch.io/app

reinstall was my first idea, just tried the app but it just did the same thing must be something on my end blocking the game for some reason, maybe windows firewall. great game though hope to get it working again lol

I've began running into the same issue.

Thanks for letting us know!

How to run this game on ubuntu 20.4 LTS ? (I am green, don't blame on me :D) 

(1 edit)

I'm not gonna lie - when it comes to Ubuntu - you probably know more than me. I'll check with people who are better with this stuff than myself and get back to you.

(1 edit)

Does the main character represent of my leg man comic? lol

Do you do your own voices? I really felt the emotion. 

(+1)

Yeah I do my own voice acting and sometimes I play in video games or animation cartoons.  

Keep it up - there's nothing better than making stuff!
