 var icywitch :int:=Pic.FileNew("icywitch.bmp")
 Pic.Draw (icywitch, 150,250,0)
 end icywitch

procedure ghost
 var ghost :int:=Pic.FileNew("ghost.bmp")
 Pic.Draw (ghost, 150,250,0)
 end ghost
 
 
procedure blue_monster
 var blue_monster :int:=Pic.FileNew("ghost.bmp")
 Pic.Draw (blue_monster, 150,250,0)
 end blue_monster
 
loop
put "Do you wish to play this spooky freaky intense swaggerific game?(y/n)"
var reply : string (1)
get reply
cls
exit when reply not ="y"
var count :int:=0
var tick:int

Well, how does your game work? Your code so far doesn't tell us much of anything.

Is your game an RPG, shooter, platformer, or what? What are the game mechanics - do you have hit points and deal damage, or is it one-hit-one-death? Setting the difficulty is based on the game mechanics you choose.

Setting difficulty can be easy for some games and hard for others. Things like Sudoku generators are difficult to gauge for different levels of challenge, while Pong will be dirt simple. Btw, I love the line "Do you wish to play this spooky freaky intense swaggerific game?". It's just awesome.

it could be something like this

if tick = 1 then
*Coding for easy*

elsif tick = 2 then
*Coding for medium*

elsif tick = 3 then
*Coding for hard*
