It was a project that someone had to make a CQ game for ZZT, a works-on-every-OS program that uses dos and uses ansii characters for the players and whatnot.  Last I heard of it, it was still using the original scheme (top-down shooter) and the creator was bored with it.

Is there a webpage for it, or somewhere else where I can learn more information about it?

Something I'd like to bring up here is the "Chex Quest 3 beta." Now, to what am I exactly referring to? Well, in material referencing the stolen Chex Quest 3 and even Chukker's Chex Quest 3 reference a Chex Quest 3 beta posted at the original chexquest.com website before it went down. Does anybody know anything about this?

oddies, oddites, rarites.. hmmm..

Chex Quest was just release for General Mills sake. It's not like theres going to be pop-up merchandize, and Chex cereal released Chex Quest for an oddite itself!

..But I do remember of young age some guy was selling both light blue and pink t-shirts of the Chex Quest logo on it. I guess it was homemade with the Iron or maybe it
could have been some real Chex Quest Merchandize. I think it was limited homemade.

Richie tried to do something like this back when this new location was founded in January of 2008. He didn't go through with it because of copyright concerns.

Man, maybe we could e-mail GM about trying for a few limited edition CQ t-shirts?

How do I put the wad into the game?

In GZDoom, you can take the WAD, and drag and drop it on GZDoom.exe.

In Legacy, use Single Map, and choose the wad, and begin.

And by the way, I remember someone else posting this a while back...what a great rickroll mod!  ;D

Hmmm, I did that. And I couldn't switch weapons.

Could it be the fact I'm using ZDoom?
