Hi everyone, I’m new to the forum… I’m looking for feedback on the UI design for my horror game. What suggestions do you have for additions, removals, or modifications?

Instead of having open next to each button, you should make the button the text, like just delete the text then set the text of the button to what you want it to open.
I suggest making the start button continue if the player’s checkpoint is greater than 0, and for the “No game started yet.” text label, i was wondering what that would display if a game was started? Would it display the location the player is at?
Does it looks better now?
In essence, I designed this screen with the idea of displaying if there’s a game in progress or not. If there’s a game in progress, then the “continue” option appears, and if a game isn’t in progress, it appears as a “start” button. In simple terms, the “continue” button allows you to return to the game from where you left off, while the “start” button starts a new game.
Ah, that makes alot more sense.
Another thing I would do is add UIStrokes to the buttons for the text, a thin outline with the thickness of 2 can really help depth.
Try to use a color that is just a bit lower or higher in shade than the base color of the UIyou are applying a stroke to.

This horror game’s main menu UI looks great! Good job on it! It’s basic and it does its job! How long did it take for you to create this main menu in total?
I made it in one day. It’s pretty simple but i don’t know what to add/modify.
That makes a lot more sense. It looks like a great base to build off, but maybe try to make it look more like a horror menu? It doesn’t really convey horror and to my understandings probably doesn’t reflect themes in the game. It kind of looks more like a template, which is ok to start off with. Try adding vignette in places or grunge effects to the buttons?
