Bug Description

The HUD options text is in white with a lightly blurred brown background.

This is not really acceptable if the application running in background is showing a white patch area and the HUD options happen to overlap with that area (see attached screenshot for example).

I propose the background of the HUD be made less transparent and in a darker shade of brown. Either that or the options displayed is outlined with a black border, and the typeface be made a little bigger. These options can also be combined to improve readability.
