Pygame Installation Via Pip

I'm trying to install pygame in my python 2.7. I do it in this python because for some reason if I try to install pip in python 3.7 it won't work. From the terminal I entered: sudo

Solution 1:

Are u using python 2.7.x or 3.x when runing script ?

Possibly, You run command like

python3 example.py

Or you run python example.py but python --version is outputting 3.x version if you are using Windows.

Can you try install pygame with pip3 ?

pip3 install pygame

Solution 2:

Hmm.. My suggestion would be,

Go on this website : https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pygame

Delete the current vesion of PyGame (.9.4) and follow the instructions on this video that I found for you on YouTube:

This will give you a tutorial of how to install PyGame 1.9.3 a lower version.

Good luck!

Solution 3:

Try python3 -m pip install -U pygame --user
