About The Black Heart

The Black Heart is a VS 2d fighting game in the tradition of Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat.

It's about another world in a parallel dimension where the king and ruler has been murdered. A vicious creature called Final has ripped his heart where he stored all the power he used to create that world.

Six creatures, both from our world and the other one, chase this monster to steal the heart for their own purposes, since it's told that the bearer of the heart will weild an enormous power.

The game was all made by 1 person (Andrés Borghi) through 7 years of hard work, including graphics, programming, story, music, sound and pretty much everything. This new release celebrates the 10 year aniversary, updating the game to modern specs and with visual and audio improvements.

If you enjoy pixelated blood, fluid gameplay in Capcom style, combos, tragic and epic music, weird pictoric landscapes and complex storytelling this is the game for you!

✦ AI summary

Players appreciate the game's story, characters, and nostalgic appeal, with some finding it an enjoyable experience overall. However, critics point out that it's a barebones fighting game with inconsistent sprite quality, unclear storytelling, input responsiveness issues that frustrate newcomers, and an unfairly difficult final boss that feels unbalanced.

Recommended Aug 31, 2026
Absolutely recommend this to any fighting game enthusiasts. Not the best graphics, nor the most tight mechanics, but, man, it's a lotta fun, especially for something more or less made by one guy. My only gripe is that, hoooly, unlocking the secret final character is so finnicky that you can legitimately do what you're instructed to and still not get to fight them, because some part of it didn't count. And then you have to do it all again. But I suppose that's considered extra content for the diehard fans, which I've been for a long time, so I suppose it's fine.

Recommended Sep 19, 2026
game is REALLY well made and every character feels so different from eachother, only problem is the final boss fight which just feels insanely unnecessary to add because its so poorly made and unfair (mostly just RNG) but other than that, overall its good
Recommended Sep 12, 2026
Great arcade fighter, i feel like you can immediately be able to play the unlockable characters (Gustavo, Janos, and Final) if you mess with the files enough. The Config you access by going to Browse files > Save > Config has ENDLESS possibilities. The files altogether have endless possibilities.
