You can't change the difficulty by design after you create the character. But if you don't mind cheating these official rules, you can find your character save file in this folder (or its equivalent in other OSes):

Note the ACK in Casual difficulty. This special character is important because it won't work if you just type "casual" in a regular text editor and leave the invisible BS before it. The game won't recognize the player file, but it won't delete it. You can just edit back or use Notepad++ to fix this.
For example, there are mods which enable hunger on casual difficulty or disable pixel and/or item dropping on death. So when there is one specific aspect of the difficulty level you've chosen which bothers you, you can change that one aspect through modding.
Difficulty mode is selected at character creation and applies to the character being created. The character's difficulty mode determines whether they need to eat food to survive, the conditions under which they are able to beam to their ship, and the repercussions of their death. The difficulty mode of a character cannot be changed after they have been created.
After selecting the game mode, you'll have to create and select your own character. Click the New button on the bottom right to open the character creation screen. Here, you can change a number of your character's properties such as: hair, hair color, clothing style along with its colors, skin color, and eye color!
Your character's name will display when logging into a world, sending messages in chat, and whenever you die. It does not have to be the same as your Steam or console username. On the PC version, Console version, Mobile version, and tModLoader version, you are able to change the name of your character at any time you wish. On Old-gen console, Windows Phone, Old Chinese, 3DS, and tModLoader Legacy, your character's name cannot be changed later on.
You can choose different character difficulty options: Journey, Classic (also known as Softcore), Mediumcore, and Hardcore. Note: On 3DS, all players are in Classic mode; there is no difficulty setting.

Eating any single food item gives them a, which provides slow healing plus any associated with the food, but prevents eating multiple food items to stack buffs.

Of the three available difficulty modes, Casual mode provides the most relaxed gameplay experience. It is ideal for new players, as well as those who wish to explore and build with minimal interruption.
So, you've been playing ARK: Survival Evolved, and you realize you never changed the difficulty level from the default when you started the game.The max level of all the dinos you can find is only 30, and you're loot from supply beacons is scaled down to match, with nothing but low level items and low level blueprints.
If you want to find higher level dinos to tame, and get better loot, you will need to change the difficulty level in the existing world your're playing in. Can you do this? Yes, you can! This guide will show you how to do that!
Starbound has a similar character difficulty setting, except it affects the challenges you face. The three modes are Causal, Survival, and Hardcore. In Casual mode, you'll never get hungry. The only death penalty is a 10% loss of Pixels, which is the game's main currency.
At a glance, One Step From Eden will look familiar to anyone who has played the Mega Man Battle Network series, but this recent title seems very much to be its own take on the grid-based action genre. Gameplay revolves around building a deck of abilities and collecting artifacts that improve your character. As you try to complete a full run of the game, you'll encounter stages with minor enemies, hostages, hazards, shops, and bosses. The pixel art and animation are certainly attractive, but like a rose that beauty hides a particularly sharp thorn. While in some ways every run feels different, what doesn't change is how steep the difficulty curve becomes about halfway through a complete run.
The Calamity Mod is a large content mod for Terraria which adds many hours of endgame content and dozens of enemies and bosses dispersed throughout the vanilla game's progression. The Calamity Mod also features several harder difficulty modes, five new biomes and new structures, a new class, a new leveling mechanic, more than forty new songs, over fifty recipes for previously uncraftable vanilla items and other assorted changes to vanilla gameplay.
One minute you are setting up ladders to cross an expanse of mudslides to carry out victims and the next a boulder comes rocketing down the river and smashes your ladder. Or maybe you are in the middle of giving CPR to an unconscious friend whilst the pathway to the ambulance catches fire. The constant flow and change to the environment shakes up the game space and creates added difficulty and challenge to seemingly simple concepts. The added need to specifically craft certain items or the fact supplies left on the ground despawn also adds a level of complexity that one could take for granted.
scott_b: On the topic of rogue-lite horizontal shooters, you might want to check out The Void Rains Upon Her Heart. It is in Early Access on Steam, but IMO already feels like a full game. It is basically a boss rush game - but there are 30+ bosses, each with multiple "levels" - where higher levels of each boss have incrementally more challenging attack patterns. So, effectively there are a few hundred distinct boss fights (eventually) available. The main game consists of 10 boss encounters. Except for the earliest stage, you usually get to decide which boss to fight from two or three options. Beating a boss earns the player one or more "gifts", which might be increased damage, "options" as in Gradius but with specific damage types, healing, smart bomb replenishment, or various others. Some gifts require maintaining a certain combo, attaining a certain level score, or escaping with minimal hits. Some gifts only require completion of the level. As you might imagine, the permutations get quite numerous and that's before considering the various difficulty levels, the alternate main character, and the "quick play" mode (i.e., fight one selected boss to earn unlocks, scores, etc.). I've been playing it rather frequently this past month. Sounds like you might be into this kind of game as well. Would be great if it eventually comes to consoles, but I believe the developer is a single individual, so that might take a while! 2ff7e9595c
