Seeking Playtesters Amendable to a SE Asian Time Zone (for an OSR system that I have been working on for the past year)

So, I've been working on an OSR system for... about a year, now. It's a very odd OSR system, but it can play Keep without conversion, so. 

It features: 

  • very weird classes, all of which are criminals 
  • three entirely seperate rulesets (that just happen to seemlessly use the same character sheets) for playing in cities, wilderness, and dungeons
  • mostly one-roll combat
  • a huge focus on domain play, followers, schemes, machinations, and the various crimes of the party
  • a wilderness system that can use real-world maps without conversion, calculation, or measurement
  • meaningful and in-depth city play
  • an odd combination of 1:1 time and the overloaded encounter die, but only in dungeons
  • grotesque mutation-causing monster-eating as the only way to regain HP in dungeons
  • a generally mythic or folkloric approach to magic 
  • a character creation process in which "Alcoholic, Elf Adventuring for Incomprehensibly Elfy Reasons, Upwardly Mobile Beggar" and "Dispossessed Noble, Failed Farmer, and Bounty Hunter on the Run (From Other, Different, Bounty Hunters)"are both sets of backgrounds that can be forced on you to explain why you are adventuring and give you some bonuses

I'm not okay with showing it in public quite yet, but I am looking for another round of playtesters. 

If you're okay with playing with games in a SE Asian timezone and playing online through Telegram, comment below.
