Chex is not dead. We reported about the HD-remake that's currently in progress a few days ago and there is also some stuff for our good old retro-gamers and pixel-lovers in the pipeline. Death Egg has compiled a thread with all the Chex releases and progressing mods out there currently, featuring his very own which is based on works by Boingo the Clown, titled The Ultimate Chex Quest. It's under development and in the need of additional support in terms of mappers but things are going well lately. Check the thread for more information.
