This will show you about the user interface in-game
After the Room Master starts the game, you will be redirected to a loading screen similar to the one shown here, to load the round/game.
When loading, Rumble Fighter will first load all character data of everyone in the room for you, then load the stage and connects both sets of data together to start the game. So the process is:
Loading Players - longest duration in load process
Loading Stage
Synchronizing – if you get stuck here you have disconnected
Game Start
Your loading data is the top one on the list, followed by all other players and their loading data.
In the middle of the screen will be the map for the upcoming round, with the type of game mode noted in the corner of the map picture (in this case – Survival).
At the bottom of the screen in yellow text will be a randomized game tip.
First we will take a look at the in-game UI when playing team and singles mode:
There are five main parts of the user interface that need to be noted:
My Player Indicator (Red)
Teammates Player Indicators (Purple)
Game Information (Yellow)
Opponent Player Indicators (Green)
Time left in Round
My Player Indicator
Located at the bottom left of the screen is your player indicator, there are many things on your player indicator, starting from left to right:
3 Inventory Item Sockets - You have 3 sockets for your inventory items, to use them press the Key associated with the inventory item socket
Example: HP Pot in Socket 1, thus to use HP Pot you press 1 on your keyboard
Transformation Gauge – Purple meter on your player indicator.
This is a gauge that charges your Exocore, it will constantly increase as long as you are alive. When the meter reaches 50% you will be able to transform into your Exocore. The meter will fill when you deliver damage to enemies, but fills faster when you keep receiving damage. Also, when you have your Exocore up, the meter will continually decrease until you take off the Exocore or it reaches zero at which point the Exocore you have on will unmorph from your character.
Character Face – Displays your character face so others can recognize you
Number of Normal Panics Left – Two Circles on player indicator
This indicates the amount of panics you have left (in this case - One normal panic left) this doesn’t account for x2 Panic found in inventory. Once you use it the light will turn out.
Username – Displays your username
Amount of HP Left – Orange bar underneath username
Displays the amount of Health Points you have
Amount of SP Left – Blue bar
Displays the amount of Mana Points you have
Rune – Square picture next to player indicator

Teammates/Opponent Player Indicators
Similar to your player indicator, you can see the player indicators of everyone else in the room, however you will not see their inventory item keys or panics indicator. Players on your team will be marked with the same colour indicator as you and will be on the bottom of the screen.
Opponents in team mode will be marked with the opposing color and their player indicators will be placed on the top of the screen, in Singles mode all every player has a blue player indicator since everyone is your opponent.
There is no team chat available on Rumble Fighter.
