I tried out this game, and the way I see it, there is absolutely no
reference to the title being something greater than the god you believe in.
As far as I can see, you are making a very very big jump in assuming
that the author has anti-religious beliefs and intends to mock those
who believe in God. There is absolutely no direct mention of the god
you appear to believe in. Capitalizing the g in god isn't specifically
owned. Anyone can use it to mean whatever they want.
For all we know, the author may have been referring to a Roman, or Greek
god, or one in a different religion he/she believes in. However, in my
opinion, there is no reference to a specific god and as such your
assumption that the author intends to mock your beliefs is meaningless.
It is not enough to justify that there were intentions to insult or
offend anyone.
If you really do think that the upstream author intended to insult
religious beliefs, I suggested contacting them directly and seeing their
side.
