Will do. o7
@Skulfuk: Fair point, though i dare say i didn't find them distracting at all. I didn't float around behind them though, which might have helped. I'll certainly have to move the bars around a little, since they can get in the way. There's also more HUD elements inbound, which will need the extra space.
However, the top of the screen is mostly reserved for score and boss health. Putting the XP bar up there would just make it confusing.
@Bloob: Hmm, maybe. A slight adaptation: All bars should be vertical, roughly same length as current health bar, and stuffed into the bottom corners of the screen. Should be more satisfying for everyone. :U
