First impression opinion

Hello everyone! This is my first time opening a topic on this site.

I published my game a few days ago and it's not been indexed yet, so this is the PERFECT time to ask.

TENPO•IS - The Admonitory Rhyme by elis_o (itch.io)

I'd like some opinions on my game page, especially in regard to one particular topic. 

A comment I received made me consider the idea that the first impression my game gives - despite it not being mentioned neither in the tags nor in the warnings - is of having the implied theme of gender identity.

That's actually not the case and that's where the problem arises, I really don't want to give the wrong impression when it comes to such a sensible topic; if someone were to download the game with this idea, they might be even annoyed by how much it doesn't tackle the topic at all... even when it might seem "logical" to.

I'm aware the description and tags are a bit vague, but it was a choice, because part of the fun (??) is trying to understand what actually happened and when. Hence the mystery and horror tags.

This might seem like I'm overthinking.  Am I?! I really don't know, so that's why I'm asking for opinions. I have a history of not being able to see very obvious things...

To summarize, does anybody have the same impression? Is there something I can do to avoid that?

Any suggestion in any other regard?


And that's all I guess. Thank you for being patient with me.

(Edited because wow, as stated, I really can't notice very obvious things at times c;)
