If you don't have an account, just leave the password field blank.
Shield that works the same as lifebar I actually find really stupid. If that's the case, just make it more life. Don't need to confuse things by adding in new elements that don't even actually make a difference.
The difference is, when your life bar increases, it should stay that way, whereas the shield should add as an extra, and only last once before you had to get a new one. You'd have to find each of them separately and once one is used, it should never come back.
But still, I prefer there to be no shield nor health regeneration at all. After all, one of the basic elements of video game is that you have a health bar, and when it empties it's game over, or you lose a life, depending on the game.
