My Action-Adventure HUD

 

This is my design for the Action Adventure HUD. I included the key display elements:

Health Bar

The health bar (red), magic bar (blue), and stamina bar (green) are all presented in a celtic/druid themed display, to match that of the theme of the game.

Minimap

Like Skyrim, I decided against a minimap as it allows for more immersive exploration in the game. A large map screen would be found in the menu but this would not benefit the gameplay and aesthetics of the game in this case.

Weapon Types

The second bar contains two circles, the first displaying the weapons selected, in this case dual wield swords. The second circle displays the selected spell, in this case a fireball.

Current Money

The second bar shows the celtic symbol for money followed by the amount of coins that the player currently has in their inventory.
