lifebar
Digital health indicator
A lifebar is a visual indicator in video games showing a character's remaining health, typically displayed as a horizontal bar that depletes as damage is taken: My lifebar was almost empty when I found a health pack.
Also called a health bar or HP bar.
The term extends metaphorically to energy levels in real life: After that meeting, my lifebar is at zero.
