1.9.6 Packages (April 25th 2019)
Source
For most Unix systems, you must download and compile the source code. The same source code archive can also be used to build the Windows and Mac versions, and is the starting point for ports to all other platforms. Download the latest Python 3 and Python 2 source. This comes with python since Python 2.7.9+ and Python 3.4+. UsersUSERNAMEDownloadsfilename.whl For linux/mac users you can omit the.exe. The unoffical binaries linked above to download pygame section usually has the most recent pygame patched to fix until the official release is out. But because it unoffical, if it does not work. I also found the latest 32 bit Pygame (as of Feb. 5th, 2016) seems to work well with 32 bit Python 3.4.4. I installed 32 bit python-3.4.4.msi on Windows 10 from my downloads folder to the folder C: Python34. Within the Python34 folder, I created a folder called 'Project Directory'.

Get the version of pygame for your version of python. You may need to uninstall old versions of pygame first.NOTE: if you had pygame 1.7.1 installed already, please uninstall it first. Either using the uninstall feature - or remove the files: c:python25libsite-packagespygame . We changed the type of installer, and there will be issues if you don't uninstall pygame 1.7.1 first (and all old versions).

Pygame is a set of Python modules used for writing simple video games and graphical programs. It is cross-platform, which means it can be installed on both Windows and Mac computers. This guide provides the steps needed to install Pygame for Python 3.6 on Windows and macOS.
Procedure (Windows 10)

- Make sure to have the latest version of Python 3 installed on your computer. If you need to install Python 3, you can visit (this site) to install the latest Python 3 release.
When running the Python installer, you will have to select Customize installation. Click Next and check the box next to Install for all users at the top of the list in Advanced Options. You can now click Install.
- Once Python 3 is installed, launch the File Explorer.
Click This PC, select the drive where Windows is installed (usually the C: drive), double-click on the Program Files (x86) folder, and double-click on the Python folder (i.e. Python36-32).
Click on the path in the text box towards the top of the File Explorer window and copy it to the clipboard.
- Next, you will need to launch the Control Panel. To do this, open the Start Menu and search control in the search box. The Control Panel should be the first option that appears in the Start Menu.
- Click on System and Security, then System, then Advanced System Settings.
In the window that appears, click on Enviroment Variables…
You will need to edit the Path system variable. To do this, select Path in the System variables section of the window and click Edit…
- Click New and paste the path copied from earlier into the empty textbox that is generated. Click OK twice to save the changes.
- You will now need to open the Command Prompt as an administrator. To do this, open the start menu and search cmd in the search box. The Command Prompt should be the first option that appears in the Start Menu. Right click on that option and choose Run as administrator.
- In the Command Prompt, type cd and a space and right-click in the Command Prompt to paste the path to Python. Press Enter.

- In the search bar, enter /usr/local/Cellar/python and click Go.
- Navigate to the folder where Python 3 is located. It will probably be named in this format: 3.x.x.

- In the IDLE interpreter, type the following command and press Enter:
If the command completed without throwing any errors, you have successfully installed Pygame and found the correct version of IDLE to use for Pygame programming.
- To make finding this version of IDLE easier, you can create a Desktop shortcut for IDLE 3. If you want to do this, press and hold the control key and click on IDLE 3. It will open a Menu where you can select Make Alias and create another IDLE 3 icon. You can name this icon whatever you like, but make sure to drag it to your Desktop when you are done.
