Use the Custom Hotbar Effectively

Familiarize Yourself with the New Layout

The custom hotbar redesigns your inventory display to match Ultrakill's aesthetic. Your currently selected item is highlighted prominently, and the surrounding slots are arranged for quick visual scanning during intense moments.

Organize Your Items Strategically

Place your most-used weapons and tools in easily accessible hotbar slots. Since the custom design makes slot positions more visually distinct, you can develop muscle memory faster. Keep healing items, weapons, and utility blocks in a logical order that matches your combat flow.

Maintain Awareness During Fights

The redesigned hotbar is optimized for quick glances without breaking focus from enemies. The clearer visual hierarchy helps you track which item is active at a glance. This is especially useful in multiplayer combat where split-second decisions matter.

Combine with Other Effects

The custom hotbar works alongside the Parry Flash and Style Meter to create a cohesive combat experience. All three elements work together to give you better feedback during fights, making your combat feel more responsive and rewarding.
