Today we released an episode on Chex Quest, a promotional game built with the Ultimate Doom engine that was found in millions of cereal boxes in the 90s. This one was a ton of fun to make. We hope that you enjoy it! www.youtube.com/watch?v=BPFD... #podcast #retro #chexquest #videogames #history

In the latest episode of Codex Rex, we discuss Wolfenstein 3D, a fast-paced and bloody game that is sometimes called the "grandfather of 3D shooters." We are now at the halfway point in our story about id Software and are excited for you to give it a listen! www.youtube.com/watch?v=rGJU...
