Beta-Testing

I was wondering if anyone was interested in beta-testing.
I am nearing completion of the final dungeon (I am scrapping the sidequest dungeon and it will just contain a boss and a reward for those who get into it.) of the first act, after which I need to do some adds (a tutorial in the beginning and put together the quest menu) and then my own beta-testing.
Another question I had is what is a good forum to distribute the game for beta-testing purposes? I am expecting the file size to be in the 50 meg range (I have some MP3s that I'm using) and am kind of a dinosaur in terms of file uploading mechanics of present day.
If you are interested in beta-testing, please send me a message. Thanks.

I'd be down with beta-testing your game.
Me too. It's not the End Of The World (pffft, Ragnarok) if you have a few bugs. But it'd be nice to work on them.
And I'm always up for beta-testing any Ring Saga game.

I don't think there will be quite that many bugs, I've tried to thoroughly test as I go along - what I'm really wanting to test out is some of the balancing, and spots where I stray in terms of dialect (in this first chapter, the main races are the dwarves and the orcs, who are creatures from Niflheim that have gained passage to Nibelheim from a story arc - I wanted to use this mainly to bolster the surmounting army that is building up against Valhalla, since dwarves are depicted as weak and sort of foolish people in Wagner's play) - the dwarves kind of have a sloppy, ignorant sounding-dialect while the orcs, whom are really just the deceased who were sent to Niflheim versus Asgard/Valhalla, tend to have a blunt, rage-like approach yet with a semblance of intelligence behind them through words. The systems in the game are also something I'd like to see how people feel before I do a full release of the demo and then presentation - sometimes adding an extra second of wait time or eliminating it seems to do wonders.
I'm hoping by the end of the week at the very least I can get you guys a demo that may not include the quest menu - depending on how work pressures go.
What I'm really excited about is the freedom I have with the 2nd Act - between the creation of the Valkyries and beginning of the end of the act, I have some freedom to touch on aspects of not only the mythology the play was built on, but also some historical influence - my initial intro plan is to have a Brunhilde encounter with King Odacer of Italy (I am placing the story during the fall of the Western Roman Empire, which allows me to weave Dietrich von Bern into the story akin to the Nibelunglied) which foreshadows a historical event.
I will keep you guys updated.
