I am working on objLink's actions and the AI in this engine still.  I remember I talked about the HUD before, and people said that it doesn't go to well with a lttp like Zelda game.  I changed the HUD; the HUD created by porkchops.  The little green button was made by me,  so I can have a separate button for just the sword only.
*All the HUD I have created do not fit in so well, and currently I am still looking around for a good one,  I am going to code the system in-game so 3 weapons can be used instead of 2, yet I am still thinking of keeping only 2.*

Also I there is a text-box engine that was made by Mit in this engine.  I am trying to code it to get colored text, so far it is almost done, but I was wondering if you guys think this textbox is okay or not, so I can change it later on.

The hearts are tiny, along with the other HUD elements... You might want to turn the background of the textbox into a solid color as well.

It is definitely more fitting with lttp style however you may still want to adjust a few things:
  • Bringing the hearts in from the edges more (kinda matching the same spacing from the edge as your buttons)
  • Close the gaps between your hearts, they are a bit too spaced out from eachother
  • Maybe add a darker background to the text box so the text stands out. Perhaps a 60% transparent black?
  • Work on the kerning between your text letters, it's also a bit to spaced out

Once those few kinks are worked out it should look a lot better. If you have to, use screens from lttp as a reference to get the heart spacing down.

Edit: Looking at it again you might want to change the color of the hearts to a bit lighter red so it doesn't look as small like Xiphrix mentioned or opt for a white outline.
