Adding text objects to the HUD
Next, we're going to create a HUD to tell the player what their score is. Let's start by
adding a textbox to the screen. Click on Insert New Object and select Text from the Gen-
eral section.
Tip
Our new textbox doesn't look that exciting, so I'd suggest changing the size and font style.
I've changed mine to Arial, Narrow Bold Italic, and size 36. It's best to stick to common
fonts—Construct 2 draws on the font files available on the player's computer and if they
don't have the same file as the one you have, it will substitute for a default that might not
look proper.
