Heart of Smoke

About

Heart of Smoke is a side-scrolling platformer from IndigoWare that channels the spirit of 90s action games. You alternate between Eneen, a smoke wizard who conjures birds for flight and bats for combat, and Rae, a nimble ninja who slices enemies with her katana. Each level demands quick thinking as you use their distinct skills to navigate traps, defeat foes, and reach the exit. The game’s charm lies in its tight controls and creative level design. Switching between characters mid-level lets you tackle challenges in new ways, fly over gaps then switch to Rae for speed. While it lacks online features, its single-player focus and retro-inspired visuals have earned it a dedicated following among fans of classic platformers.
