We all know that a user interface (UI) is “the space” where interactions between humans and games occur. HUD, on the other hand, that’s a head-up display: a transparent display that presents data without distracting gamers. [b]We have been working on it for several days[/b]. Where on screen and how to show the valuable information. What kind of “resources” should be on HUD? What color and style should it have? [h2]Check out a few of our ideas![/h2] We took inspiration from [b]classical hack n slash games, like Diablo, and also classical survival horrors like Resident Evil[/b]. We make some tweaks and then look for space designated for NPCs, because [b]sometimes our hero will have some company[/b].

That’s why not many colors and a few elements.

You surely know what we have in mind - Alien(s), of course. ‘Cause [i]in space, no one can hear you scream[/i]. [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/39210276/3aa3652c12fa40f82cf56931b72ae706815ec251.png[/img] That [b]retro-sf look[/b] can be found also in the equipment window.

There are some enemies that we are still preparing for you - [b]how they look, how they fight, and how they will die…[/b] [previewyoutube=EijQGIBjSEg;leftthumb][/previewyoutube] [h2]What’s next?[/h2] [b]Demo of course.[/b] That means that we have to face our own fears and start to balance all elements - weapons, enemies, oxygen and batteries, etc. - because the conglomerate of all that will create [b]the true survival horror experience[/b] we are looking for. All that and of course, the story, atmosphere, sounds, music, and animations :) [b]After all, [i]you don’t wanna leave Earth to be safe[/i], right?[/b] CryoSpace team
