     Freeze frames are probably something I can do, but no way in hell am I doing screen shakes or slow motion. Screen shakes would require me to mess with viewports and I really don't feel like getting in to that. Slow motion would require me to either reduce the framerate (which I don't know how to do in MonoGame) or slow down every single object.

     You are a DESIGNER not a PROGRAMMER. You don't have to deal with "implementing" anything.

     @xianc78 Are you not managing changes in the game relative to a dt? Having your logic advance statically per frame isn't a good idea

     Monogame should be giving you something like an update(dt) callback that gives you the deltatime (time since last frame, rendering + vsync)

     All you have to do for slow motion is to have a multiplier for it

     player.x = player.x + (player.velocity * player.speed * dt * speed)

     @xianc78 nah he's a programmer too. man spent so much time working on smash 4, i think it was, that he had to be temporarily hospitalized. a game director or designer wouldn't even have enough stuff to do to warrant that.
