Hello,
I need some help with making a main menu and HUD. Basically what I want is to know how to create a main menu like Swing Ninja has. And a HUD with that’s shows my life and coins.
first of all, yes I’ve looked at a lot of vids etc on youtube already, but most videos just show basic health bars and weird menu’s.
I basically want it to look something like this:
(screen of my game, lives and coin counter added in photoshop)
I know the strategy example has a HUD a bit similar.
Make those “ugly health bars and weird menu’s[sic]”. Replace the graphics with your own. Tweak as needed.
Ugly was a bad way to phrase it, I mean basic (as in just text and bars).
Doesn’t look very basic, but it’s covered in the UMG documentation thread.
Doesn’t look very basic either, but it’s covered in the UMG documentation thread as well as the UMG twitch demonstration stream on their YouTube channel.
Well this is looking a lot better. I will check that out, thank you.
If you want to make a menu like Swing Ninja just copy it and make the necessary mods. That’s part of what it’s for. Check out the blueprints in that game and replicate them with your own ideas.
I actually already made a menu with UMG. It’s really easy to use and tweakable for great results.
Thanks Veovis Muad’dib 
Glad you got it working!
