Sci-Fi GUI design

[WHAM]

You can never go wrong with using a classic for reference...

It's in German, sure, but take a look at the LED numbers... there is a hint of dark red on segments not being used (the middle bar on a "0" for example), to make it look more realistic in terms of an actual LED display.

I would also get rid of that gradient and (if possible) animate some long streaks of green "static", kind of, of some other fizzling effect. Even if it has to be static, it can be done. Check out an example below (I have the Photoshop file if you want, with layers in tact):



Otherwise, AWESOME gui, I'd love to play a game with a GUI like that.

You've actually inspired me in the GUI design for my own game.

You have a good idea, and I'll have to try and redesign the holo-beam between the projectors indeed. I'm keeping a bit busy right now, bu I'll be back with a new version ASAP.
