Heeeeello there!

Here's a brand new patch for El Paso, Elsewhere and, with it, a brand new patch changelog!

Our core goal with this patch was to fix two major problems: a performance issue on the game's first boss fight and an overall issue with achievements. Let's get to it!

V14 CHANGELOG

• Fixed scripting issues in many components. This should improve overall CPU performance in some event-heavy levels.
  
• Fixed an issue in the first boss fight that could cause heavy performance degradation in this level.
  
• Fixed another issue in the first boss fight that could cause the NPC to freeze in place.
  
• Improved how achievement stats from Steam are gathered to (hopefully) fix achievements once and for all.
  
• Fixed a typo in the Main Menu.
  
• Improved UI scaling for 21:9 and 16:10 aspect ratios.
  
• Added a 240hz option to the game's framerate selection in the options menu.

Thank you for your patience and feel free to report any issues you encounter to us through the Steam Discussion boards. The more details in your reports, the faster we'll be able to get things fixed.

We (the team at Strange Scaffold, including all of our pets) wish you all a fantastic 2024!

Dear friends,

It’s been an exciting year for Strange Scaffold, and we’re so grateful for our fans helping us reach Overwhelmingly Positive status. We have one more, small ask as the light starts to fade on this year.

We are asking for your help in nominating El Paso, Elsewhere for a Steam Award in the Outstanding Story-Rich Game category. We know you like the shooting, the vampires, the werewolves… maybe not the Puppeteers… but you really love the storycraft and voice acting in our little game.

The sordid saga of James Savage and Draculae has touched a place deep inside you (so much that one reviewer described us as “Max Payne for Monster F**ers”). Well, we’re asking you to lean into that last part and help our twisted tale take home a coveted nomination.

Thank you in advance, and keep on slaying!

The reviews are in!
Thanks to your support, El Paso, Elsewhere has been rated Overwhelmingly Positive on Steam
Thank you, sincerely.

We couldn't have reached this point without you rating the game, telling your friends about the game, and, of course, playing the game. Thank you so much for coming with us on this one way trip—we can’t wait to bring you on more in the future.

As a marker of our gratitude, we’ve just added a Theater Mode to the game! Watch every cutscene you’ve unlocked, in any order you like, back to back, as many times as you want. Sometimes, you need a few watches to appreciate that you saw a werewolf in that fuckin’ bathroom – and trust us, we get it.

Hi there!

We've submitted a hotfix for El Paso, Elsewhere! There are still some more fixes & changes coming up in the next few weeks but we're pushing this update earlier in order to correct a critical issue.

V9 CHANGELOG

• The Modifier menu has been moved- it is no longer displayed in the Main Menu. It will now show up once a save slot has been selected.
  
• Added Modifier Presets and three difficulty-based presets: Story, Intended and Challenging. These can be selected when loading a save slot or starting a new game.
  
• Added a Speed Modifier.
  
• Fixed an issue where starting a new game from an empty save slot could cause the game to hang.

Feel free to report any issues to our Steam Discussion Board's Bug Reports section.

And once again, thank you for playing El Paso, Elsewhere!

Draculae comes with:

• Khopesh to definitely not stab you with.
  
• Elegant girlboss power suit for making deals with the Forces Beyond.
  
• Lipstick color that just screams "Meat Room".

*Reality-bending motel and emotional manipulation not included.
