@Katherine:
I'm glad you're enjoying the game so far! It's funny you mention the Seer of Rabbits Quality. Everyone on the ICED OOLONG team has a few quirky little Progress Qualities we've included off the cuff -- for funsies, for flavor -- and inevitably they're the ones our testers shout out.
There are several word-drop typos in the Opening. They'll be cleaned up going forward. Thanks for pointing that one out!

I was greatly amused by the Afraid of Heights one as well, because I am actually quite afraid of heights. But I felt silly continually editing my post for every little thing, so I didn't include it ^_^

Just a preview of one of our favorite cards for those of you still reading. Absolom the Tinker is a fixture in Amarillo: omnipresent, always cheerful, sack-bearing, unprofessional but sharp-eyed when it comes to customer service, a man with no thumb on the scale, a scaleless man; inexplicable, yes, but gladdening is Absolom the Tinker, bringer of small wonders, a friendly face in dry dusty impersonal world. This is his Opportunity card -- though not all of its playable branches, most of which Absolom shares only with those who can afford to see them.
(Careful readers will also spot a couple Progress Qualities they haven't seen before...)

Another screenshot, this time from our Gunslinger grind. The Wall Market is Amarillo's frontier-style answer to the great American supermarket: a sprawling cussing raucous bazaar where barter is the norm and dollars the exception.

An update on ICED OOLONG:
We've locked down the Opening content in preparation for a major revamp and our first content release. Those will be going live soon -- hopefully this weekend.
If you want to be one of the first people to play through our new content, head over to our other thread and leave your character name and email address. We'd love to have you involved!
In the meantime, we'll continue previewing content every couple of days on the other thread. If you have any other feedback for Opening Version 1, please feel free to leave it here. Otherwise, we look forward to hearing from all of you once our next update goes live!

Dear friends,
A few things:
- Iced Oolong is now ZERO SUMMER!
- The Opening is now open to the general public.
- Day 1/Morning, our first major content bloc, is now open to closed beta testers. (We're not currently accepting new beta testers. We may take more in the future, though.)
- This thread will be deleted soon. Instead, we ask that you use this shiny new thread for feedback/questions/general Zero Summery chitchat.
Thanks for all your time, attention and support! It's been a pleasure and a privilege so far, and we hope you continue on this journey with us.
Best from all of us,
-Gordon
