The UI provides vital information during gameplay. Here's what you'll see on your screen:
- Top Left: Soma's HP (Health Points) bar and MP (Magic Points) bar. HP depletes when you take damage, MP depletes when using Bullet or Guardian Souls.
- Below HP/MP: Equipped weapon icon and its attack power.
- Below Weapon: Equipped Bullet Soul icon and its MP cost.
- Below Bullet Soul: Equipped Guardian Soul icon and its MP cost.
- Top Right: Current time (in-game clock, mostly for flavor).
- Bottom Left: Current area name.
- Bottom Right: Money (Gold) count.
Keep an eye on your HP and MP during combat. MP regenerates slowly over time, but you'll often rely on MP restoring items or specific souls to keep your abilities flowing. The map, accessed via the Select button, is your best friend for navigation and tracking your progress through the castle.
