The process of downloading and installing PyGame under python and the problems encountered.

1. Go to the official website to download PyGame

Note: To download the corresponding version of the package

Official website address:/

where if python is the following version:

   python 3.4: /~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pygame

   python 3.5,3.6 :/pypi/Pygame

(cp36 means python 3.6)

2. .exe file direct installation

The .whl file starts the doc command installation:

Open the doc interface in the location of the file: (win10 directly in the current folder blank hold shift, right click to open powershell window)

Enter the following command to install:pip install pygame-1.9.

3. Test installation results

4. Issues

Two issues arose during the installation:

   1)You are using pip version 9.0.1, however version 10.0.1 is available.

        You should consider upgrading via the 'python -m pip install --upgrade pip' command.

Reason: this problem is mainly because the version is not updated, just update it (small beep)

Solution: Just update it by typing python -m pip install --upgrade pip command

   2)pygame-1.9.3-cp36-cp36m-win_amd64.whl is not a supported wheel on this platform.

Reason: Version mismatch

   Solution:

Check if you have downloaded the correct counterpart: python version, 32 or 64 bit

The problem I'm having is that the computer is 64-bit and thought python was 64-bit as well, but the problem occurs when installing the 64-bit pygame, just make sure of the specific version number of python, for example, mine is python 3.5.3 then the question is left as to whether it's 64-bit or 32-bit, try them both!!!!

summarize

The above is a small introduction to the download and installation process of PyGame under python and encountered problems, I hope to help you, if you have any questions welcome to leave me a message, I will reply to you in a timely manner!
