I wonder if in the future you will be able to make the hud element as a sprite. Whats i mean? Look on this screenshot and Lifebar

You can also use as an alternative to hud to save for the background tiles

You can now, just not without digging into the code :)

Mystic Searches, for instance, uses sprites to fill the "crystal ball". Sprites for HUD in scrolling games simplify the HUD / Sprite 0 hit trick / scanline counting issue dramatically. However, cost you sprites, of which you can only have so many of on a screen.

But sure, this is completely possible. In fact, you can look at the DrawSprite macro and try it out. Eventually I'll do a tutorial on exactly this.
