HUD Explained
The Heads-Up Display (HUD) in Kena: Bridge of Spirits is your primary source of information, providing crucial details about Kena's status, the environment, and ongoing objectives. Understanding each element of the HUD will allow you to make informed decisions during exploration and combat, ensuring you're always aware of what's happening around you. The HUD is designed to be unobtrusive, offering vital data without cluttering the screen, so you can fully appreciate the game's beautiful visuals.
Key elements of the HUD include Kena's health bar, typically located in a corner of the screen, which depletes as she takes damage. Adjacent to this, you'll often find a representation of her "Spirit" or "Focus" meter, which is used for special abilities and healing. The Rot meter, which indicates the number of Rot companions available and their current status, is also a vital component, especially during combat where they can be commanded to attack or perform other actions. Objective markers or compass elements might also be present, guiding you towards your next destination or highlighting points of interest. Familiarizing yourself with these indicators will be instrumental in your journey.
