Description

A user interface (UI) kit is a collection of pre-designed UI elements that creators can use to quickly build the user interface for a game. The goal of this Challenge is to build a high quality user interface kit that is great looking, and that creators can use to quickly build a professional looking UI for their game.

The best kits have a unified theme in which all the elements are designed to look good together. The elements should be visually appealing and have a high quality design. Include UI elements that you think creators will need the most.

Common UI elements include:

  • HUD (character portrait, currency, resources, timer, score, etc)
  • Buttons
  • Windows
  • Panels
  • Menus
  • Settings
  • Progress Bars
  • Pop Ups
  • Notifications
  • Winners
  • Quests
  • Inventory
  • Store
