Issues with Game Description & Split Screen

Dear Players,

We have received feedback about some confusion regarding our game description.

Here is the original version of the game description online:

Fight your friends as puppies, kittens, and other fuzzy creatures in PARTY ANIMALS! Paw it out with your friends both online and offline. Interact with the world under our realistic physics engine. Did I mention PUPPIES?
The phrase raising concerns is:

Paw it out with your friends both online and offline.
Our intention with this sentence was to convey that you can play with your friends remotely (online), or together in the same location using the same device (offline) through split-screen.

However, it seems this statement led some players to believe that Party Animals supports an offline mode. We regret the misunderstanding and wish to clarify that the game does not have, nor do we plan to introduce, an offline mode. Party Animals currently requires an online connection to play.

To prevent further misunderstandings, we have revised the game description. The controversial sentence has since been replaced with the following: "Paw it out with your friends remotely, or huddle together for chaotic fun on the same screen."

We sincerely apologize for any confusion our wording caused. It was never our intention to mislead our player base about the availability of an offline mode.

The game did not feature an offline mode in the recent three rounds of playtesting either. Intentionally misleading our players while conducting playtests that clearly reveal the absence of an offline mode would be nonsensical. (We admit, however, that our description could have been more thoughtfully worded...)

Lastly, we hope this does not sound like an excuse, but English is not our first language, and sometimes we fail to realize when our phrasing might lead to misunderstandings. For reference, here is the same description in our native Chinese:

这是一款基于物理的多人派对游戏。选择你喜欢的小动物角色,和朋友们一起挑战其他玩家,或者展开激烈的对决吧!看到毛绒绒的小动物们你还不心动吗?

Which directly translates to:

This is a multiplayer party game based on physics. Choose your favorite small animal character, challenge other players with your friends, or start an intense showdown! Aren't you moved by the sight of these fuzzy animals?

We never intended to create confusion. We now realize our description of the online split-screen feature was poorly chosen.

We are sorry for any confusion or inconvenience this may have caused. We commit to improving our foreign language communication in the future.
