With the items, you could like swipe down to show the items and choose your item.
You could touch the Paint Icon and it would bring up the Paint menu where you select your paint.
With the bricks, you could swipe from the bottom up and it would show. Button for brick menu.
There would be 2 digital D-pads, one for moving and one for looking. There would be the buttons to jump and crouch as well as use the light. There would be a Chat button and it would bring up a chat entry box.

You forgot that you still need to be able to click, jet, and admin orb.
The hud would be so cluttered, no one would be able to see what they are doing.
TristanLuigi:
I'm not an advocate of touchscreen gaming, but there aren't that many buttons... are there?
Tools: Swipe to open, tap to select.
Paint: Swipe to open, tap or slide to select.
Bricks: Swipe to open, tap to select w/ another button to open the menu.
Place Brick: Tap on screen with brick panel open to place a ghost brick there.
Rotate Brick: Tap on the ghost brick.
Fire: Tap (or hold) the screen while the tool menu is open.
Painting: Hold the screen while the paint menu is open.
Activate: Tap with no menus open.
Look: Gyroscope (toggleable) or sliding the screen.
Jump: Tap with two fingers.
Jet: Hold with two fingers.
Light: Button in the lower left.
Zoom: Pinch or expand fingers.
Crouch: Button in the lower right.
Menu: Button in the upper left, contains more features than the PC one because they can't be all fit into touch controls.
View: Toggles first/third-person, upper right.
Overall, it's not too bad, but it's still not worth it unless someone makes an add-on.
