The main risk with making a video game is that there are flashing lights and other screen related changes, which can all cause health issues involving photosensitivity.
A way to make people aware of this which I have implemented into my game is a health warning before the main menu which requires action before you can proceed.
Here is the screen:
The warning is taken from PlayStation's health warning (https://www.playstation.com/en-us/network/legal/health-warnings/), and gives clear and concise instructions should there be any issues.
To create an incentive to read the text and not just skip the screen, the continue button only appears after 5 seconds, so people are aware of the risks.
