Did you get a chance to finish 12K? If not LMK and I'll see what I can do.

There you are! I'd love it if you could take a little time to hit the forge booth menu thread (http://www.indie-rpgs.com/forum/index.php?topic=24077.0) and fill me in on your stuff's missing info.

Man, I don't even recognize half of the stuff on that list, above. Inspiration for *what*?

Kino's Journey totally fits.

How about Time Bandits, Labyrinth, The Explorers, The D&D cartoon, etc.? The 80's was full of magical world awesome. Huh. I guess Pan's Labyrinth also fits in a dark way. Digimon might also work too.
