[PyGame] How do you get PyGame?

i believe you can bypass all that now with using pip. But i never owned a mac (nor want to) so i cant confirm.

Yikes

It's virus-free I checked on virustotal.com
You can check for yourself.

It's different on a mac, on windows its easy but here on a mac you have to download seperate files for the terminal.

I dont use windows either. I use linux. 

If your talking about that tut

brew install python3
brew install sdl sdl_image sdl_mixer sdl_ttf portmidi mercurial
brew install libogg libvorbis
brew install sdl_mixer --with-libvorbis

This is downloading/installing dependencies such as SDL, and all of its extensions. And the rest of the tut just pip installs pygame

On mac you should have some way for brew to find dependencies such as ubuntu's distro

metulburr@ubuntu:~$ apt-cache showpkg python-pygame
....

Thank you, but I already found out how to do it. :D

Im saying for future packages you install you need to check for dependencies and make sure they are installed. As that was the main hint of that tutorial you linked and the only difference from a regular pip install.

How do you actually get PyGame? 
Please help me, I really want to use my experience in python to create games.

?  If you can, please show me how to use PyGame.

PS: how do you get signatures?

Hello... If you get Windows... you must follow the installation instructions and
install pyGame with PIP in the command prompt. But first you must download pyGame
from the official site http://www.pygame.org/download.shtml and put the pyGame Lib
into the Lib folder in your Python Path... But for more help... i can´t help
you further... i an new with pyGame. Install instructions are here...
