Terraria UI Redesign

Each UI element of Terraria can be split up. Instead, it's all displayed on the screen at the same time.

Terraria is a great game, but the UI needs some work. No matter how much time you put in, there will always be an element of looking through a dense grid of items to find what you're looking for. This redesign aims to be more accessible and grounded in the world, with filterable lists and utilities to make it easier to find exactly what you're looking for. Both experienced and brand new players will be able to spend less time deciphering what they have or can craft, and more time getting ready for the next boss fight!

Besides original game screens, all assets were made in Photoshop and optimized for real-time use inside Unity.
