Skeletonpatch Posted April 14, 2020 That looks interesting. I've never gotten around to playing Chex Quest so this is likely a good excuse to finally get on that. 1 Share this post Link to post
666shooter Posted April 14, 2020 Six playable characters...?! Get your hands off me Lucky Charms! I'm kind of excited for this. I've heard great things about the original and its sequels, but haven't got around to playing them yet, so assuming my computer can run this okay, I'll be happy to give it a look. And its free! Just like old Chex Quest... though I guess you still had to buy the cereal. 1 Share this post Link to post
Redneckerz Posted April 14, 2020 Chex Quest HD has been in development for some time now (using UE4), but it going to Steam is news :) 22 minutes ago, Skeletonpatch said: That looks interesting.

xvertigox Posted April 15, 2020 It's weird that the "Official History of Chex Quest" video is now private on YouTube.. It was up for almost a year. You can at least get some information here. 4 Share this post Link to post
Tetzlaff Posted April 15, 2020 (edited) Does the Chex cereal brand still exist? edit: just looked it up at Wikipedia, seems still to exist. 0 Share this post Link to post
taufan99 Posted April 15, 2020 @xvertigox Another channel, focused on business of various companies, has the video uploaded and unprivated. Can't remember where though. 0 Share this post Link to post

I tried to follow the link from the wiki and the Chex Quest Forums [Chexworld?!] but the stupid website won't download the file for me at all for some reason. 0 Share this post Link to post
Graf Zahl Posted April 17, 2020 This works fine for me: http://www.chucktropolis.com/downloads/ChexQuest3.zip What kind of error do you get? 0 Share this post Link to post

The Box link referenced in that thread actually does work still, but it kicks out in Firefox atleast. If this is the one you need i can always re-host it myself. If you were referring to the official release, follow Graf's post :) 10 minutes ago, Graf Zahl said: This works fine for me: http://www.chucktropolis.com/downloads/ChexQuest3.zip What kind of error do you get? FWIW at the time that i updated the article the Chucktropolis site was dead. Seems it is now restored again. The link you provided is of the official ZDoom based Chex3.exe. A semi-official executable exists by the creator of CQ3 icon. That one is based on GZDoom, albeit an outdated one (1.4.0). It is however more modern than the official Chex3.exe though and it does contain some subtle differences. 0 Share this post Link to post

Three games in one is quite a deal nowdays. 0 Share this post Link to post

That's the official one. If you want OpenGL rendering, use the Box one (It is based on a less outdated ZDoom revision, too) or use GZDoom since Chex Quest is natively supported either way :) 0 Share this post Link to post

snapshot Posted April 17, 2020 (edited) It's the remake we need but not one we deserve. 0 Share this post Link to post
NoahRules Posted May 18, 2020 UPDATE: The Chex Quest remake is offically out. 3 Share this post Link to post
NPC_CO8ALT Posted May 18, 2020 Played a bit of the remake. Its not bad, it has fresh interpretations of the classics levels, and somewhat modernizes it a bit by advertising Chex Mix instead of the cereal (because lets be honest, who actually ate the cereal plain instead of making or buying the mix?). 1 Share this post Link to post
ScreechingBoner Posted May 18, 2020 I'm more partial to the crispy pixel look of the original, but I'm curious to see how it plays. This is the kind of corporate pandering I can definitely get behind. 1 Share this post Link to post

MadGuy Posted May 18, 2020 (edited) Is now available on Steam. The animations are a little stiff, the sfx is literally from the original and the map layouts are drastically changed from the original. Edit: Oops I didn't notice some of the previous comments. 0 Share this post Link to post

xvertigox Posted May 18, 2020 I just finished the game (it's short, 35min or so) but I didn't unlock any of the other characters. Anyone know how to unlock them? 0 Share this post Link to post

You gotta use codes that are supposed to be on new packs of Chex and Chex Mix to get em. 0 Share this post Link to post
