Here's a quick mockup for the ingame menu of my game.

Since I won't have the character sprite changing when the player equips different weapons and armors, but I want him/her to have that possibility, I thought of an alternative way. The character is partly or maybe completely mechanic, so it makes sense to find certain upgrades in corpses and such, and equip them in certain body slots as if they where traditional RPG armor/weapons. The part could have different effects on the character depending on which slot he equipped it, and that could add a lot of variation. They can even modify themselves, such as what happens with Final Fantasy VII Materia or Path of Exile gem stones.

So there's the in-game menu, rough I know, but it's the first step into developing this concept! Once I think of some parts and effects, I'll add it to the game for further testing. I'm guessing it'll be a lot of fun.
