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*
