That "Yukiwo" title logo bears a striking resemblance to that of the movie "Akira", which came out in 1988. Even the katakana look similar (ユキヲ, アキラ)
When you consider the thematic similarity of the game to the movie, and the fact that the player ship was originally a bike... You can imagine why Taito's marketing (or more likely Legal) insisted on changing the title
Also, the bit about the earth cracking and the sea boiling is a reference to Fist of the North Star.
