One of the challenges of alternative controllers is to get the video-game out of its dedicated places. Why not start here ? Contact your local pubs, associations and offer them to exhibit your game. You’ll probably need to stay near your game during the whole « exhibition » but it’s also a great way to playtest it in order to improve it.
If there are Fab Labs, Hacker Spaces or Maker Faire near you, don’t hesitate to contact them as well. They usually really interested in those kinds of weird digital experiments.
