Advice, please; I've a Demo I'd like to have opinions on. How to proceed..?

Good evening...

First (dumb, Newbie...) question from an official Old Duffer.

I've been 'working' for the last couple of month's on an RPG, with the view of using exclusively 'what's in the box'. I'm aware of the plug-in and scripting power available (in my active career I have programming experience on several systems...), but decided to see what could be done without this. To this end, I've now got a working Demo which I would like to propose for criticism, suggestions, admiration... (no, forget that last one...). How would I go about making this available to this Community, assuming that it's both possible and desirable..?
No, no big deal; this won't shake the foundations of the RPG world, having a 'standard' story line of a simple youngster having to explore the World and Combat Evil, using the standard MV commands only. To give some small idea, I know all of the ruses and things to do (obviously..?); it takes me a couple of hours to leave the Village fully equipped, and four hours to beat the first of two Mini Bosses. The game is roughly 1/3 finished; there's still time for me to re-work any transformations that would improve it. I've been testing it myself for a while, so, if 'bugs' there are, they are few (my fingers are crossed in typing this, which is quite difficult...).
Any advice would be welcome, thanking you in advance; meanwhile...

Have a nice day

Hi Douglas. First off, did you know that you can upload your demo straight to this forum? Yes, you can. Here is the link to put it: https://rpgmakermv.co/resources/categories/demos.6/

Ask for suggestions and critiquing, and we will give you honest recommendations.

Are you going to do Windows and Mac deployment versions?

It is awesome that you did it totally with the RTP.

MJ...

Thanks for the swift response; that's very encouraging. Yes, I've a Windows and a Mac distribution to offer, but I've not an Android thingy version, as the music files I compose are only in 'ogg' format. I could do it, I suppose; it's just that I've not felt the need. As for the 'awesome' complement: many thanks, but perhaps it'll need revising once you've seen what I've done..? ;-)
I'll see if I can do this this evening, or tomorrow at the latest; my upload speed for 'zip' files of this order (around 220 Mb...) is 40 minutes per file. S'not too bad for me, but there are other members of the household (two sons...) who bitterly complain if I hog the bandwidth whilst they're 'active', so I have to choose carefully my moment.
Back soon, then, with a working demo of... Rachdale Cheese..!
