Fantasy ttrpg designer/GM, looking to start another playtest group!

Hello all! Im looking to get another group going to playtest my ttrpg system (fantasy). In general, my campaigns tend to be sandbox style, I like to take backstory details and put them center stage,  giving each character time to be the center of the story, somtimes multiple characters at once!  We'll do some collaborative worldbuilding in session 0, so you dont need to worry about studying a tome of lore right away, this basically sets up the foundational truths of our world (inspired by insworn/starforged's truth system).
We'll likely focus a lot on exploration, and combat is pretty fast in this system once we get the hang of it, so we may do  a lot of fighting to really stress test some stuff. I currently have 2 other groups going in the system and its been very very insightful! I cant offer any sort of compensation, but if youre ok with it,  I'm putting all my playesters, and/or their socials, into the rulebook, which is available for free here on itch! 

A few more details:

>Name of System: "Tales From the Loom" 
>Number of Players: 3-4 Approximate
>Session Length:  ~5-10  sessions/bi-weekly on Saturdays (time slot felxible, im in MST)  usually 2-3 hours of playtime with a few minutes at the end for questions/concerns. 
>Other Details: TFTL runs on a d6 dice pool/success counting engine. The game focuses a lot on narrative momentum and co-authorship opportunities for players. Theres fantastical species, a class system, mechanised exploration and more!
>How To Contact: Email me baffibirdsong@gmal or Comment below! 

Hello There!, I’m a Game QA Engineer currently working in the gaming industry with a AAA game project and I’m looking to collaborate with indie teams to expand my portfolio while helping improve game quality and performance. I can contribute with functional testing, regression testing, detailed bug reports, test cases and gameplay feedback. In return, I’d only ask to be credited and have permission to showcase my contribution in my portfolio if the project becomes public.

It will be a honor to help you!

Just to clarify, this is a tabletop role-playing game and I'm looking to get a group of people together and test the game in an online format. If youre still interested, please send me an email at baffibirdsong@gmail.com and I'll get you setup to play!
