What do you think could be improved in my game’s title screen?
I asked about a week ago, took your guys’ feedback, and am coming back with a (hopefully) much improved title screen!

Looking for technical critiques. New to pixel art and can't figure out why this turned out more manly than I intended. 32x48 pixels export 600%. The orange thing was meant to be a mini-cloak and it looks more like armor lmao. You won't hurt my feelings. I've been playing with this for hours.
