It really doesn't matter what it looks like - people want the functions. If you read reviews, people don't comment on the startup screens if the functions are there - they do start complaining very quickly when there's a lack of settings like not being able to turn the music off, or to customize keys like playing with arrow keys instead of ASD and vice versa. Just make it easy to use and clear. Players will only spend a few seconds looking at it anyway.
Your screenshot would confuse me - because it looks like I have to press the little guy to get to the settings menu but the block in the corner looks like it could be a volume control or something. I'm not clear on what's going on there. The only thing that really stands out is the close button - and be careful - if that is the only thing that stands out and is clear to me - it's probably going to be the thing I press first.
