In this blog, we shall look at the procedure to install PyGame on a Mac OS (Operating System); we also have a blog about installing PyGame on a Windows PC. Now PyGame is cross-platform set of modules in the Python programming language. These modules are designed for writing video games. The quickest option is to open the Terminal utility and type 'idle' at the prompt. For a more Mac-like way of opening it, you'll have to create a small app or shortcut to launch /usr/bin/idle for you (an exercise left to the reader). Explore the world of Mac.

I have compiled a replicable, dependable, almost understandable set of steps to install Pygame for Python 3 that has worked across four generations of Mac OS X. Pieces of these steps appear in two or three other how-to’s on the web, but this full process has been carefully tested across Mac OS X 10.6-10.9, and I’m posting the steps here to solicit feedback from Pygame-curious Mac users out there.

How To Check Python IDLE On Mac- To check for a Python version installation on the machine, we can use python -version command. Since by default installed version is Python 2.7.10 therefore it will show python 2.7.10.

I had run into a tough situation – I wrote a book this past year using Python as the language, and in the last three chapters, I showed readers how to build playable, interactive games using Pygame. The problem is that Pygame is challenging to get working on Python 3 on a Mac – and a lot of my readers are Mac users.

Game

Mac users have essentially the following three options if they want to use Pygame:

  • You can install an older version of Python, like Python 2.7, along with Pygame 1.9.2 for Mac OS X in a new location on your Mac for Pygame programming.
  • If you have access to a Windows PC, you may find it easier to install the Windows version of Python and Pygame…
  • Or, you can follow the steps listed below to install Pygame for Python 3.4 on your Mac – if you’re doing this at school or at work, you will probably need IT support.

How to install Pygame for Python 3 on Mac OS X successfully, every time:

  1. Install Xcode: In Finder, open Applications, App Store. Search for Xcode and click Get to install the Xcode developer tools. You’ll need these developer tools to run some of the command-line instructions in a Terminal window below.
  2. Install XQuartz: Go to http://xquartz.macosforge.org and download the current version of XQuartz (2.7.7 as of this writing). Open your Downloads folder, double-click on the XQuartz-2.7.7.dmg file, then double-click on the XQuartz.pkg package file and follow the instructions to complete the installation.
  3. Open a Terminal (command-line) window: Go to Applications, Utilities, and double-click Terminal. Your command-line Terminal window will open. All the following commands must be typed exactly as they appear in the Terminal window, one line at a time.
  4. Install Homebrew: At the Terminal command line prompt, type the following as a single full line (you may want to expand your Terminal window wider to allow it to fit, but it’s okay if it wraps around):
    ruby -e “$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)”
    then, hit return. Homebrew is a free program that helps you install Python, Pygame, and other programs on a Mac.
  5. Prepare Homebrew for use: At the Terminal prompt, type each of the following three commands exactly as shown – the second two may take a few moments to run and will show several screens of information, but keep following the steps one line at a time.
    echo export PATH=’/usr/local/bin:$PATH’ >> ~/.bash_profile
    brew update
    brew doctor
  6. Install Python 3 for Pygame: At the Terminal prompt, type:
    brew install python3
    This will install a separate Python 3 specifically for Pygame use – this is required for all the following steps to work.
  7. Install Mercurial: Still at the Terminal prompt, type:
    brew install mercurial
    Mercurial is a free source control management system that this installation of Pygame requires on a Mac.
  8. Install Pygame dependencies: Pygame requires several other helper programs, called dependencies, so that it can show animations, play sounds, and create game graphics. Type the following three lines at the Terminal command prompt, hitting return after each line
    brew install sdl sdl_image sdl_mixer sdl_ttf portmidi
    brew tap homebrew/headonly
    brew install smpeg
    (NOTE 18JUL2015: Updated to reflect changes to the smpeg library; if you have any trouble here, try brew install –HEAD smpeg instead, with two dashes/hyphens before the HEAD option).
    Each command will take a few moments to run and display screens full of information; keep going, you’re almost done…
  9. Install Pygame: Type the following line at the Terminal prompt and hit return:
    sudo pip3 install hg+http://bitbucket.org/pygame/pygame
    You may have to enter an administrator password (your password, or ask an IT administrator for help at school, work, or the library), and the installation may take a few minutes.

As mentioned in step 6 above, this process creates a second full Python environment (under /usr/local/Cellar) on your Mac. You’ll want easy access to your Pygame-enabled Python…

Create a desktop shortcut to your new Pygame IDLE editor:

The new Pygame and Python 3 that you just installed creates a separate IDLE editor app that you’ll use especially for Pygame-enabled apps. (Note: You can use this new IDLE for all your Python development, if you wish.)

  1. Go to Finder > Go > Go to Folder…
  2. In the Go to the folder: window prompt, type /usr/local/Cellar/python3 and click Go.
  3. Double-click to open the folder inside – it will be named with a version number (3.4.2_1 as of this writing), but the version is unimportant, just open the folder.
  4. Inside this folder, you will find the IDLE 3 app. Hold down the control key and click on the IDLE 3 icon. Pressing control+clicking on the icon will open a popup menu; select the Make Alias option from that menu.
  5. A new alias, or shortcut icon, will appear, with a name like IDLE 3 alias. Click on the file name to edit it, and rename the alias pygame IDLE or something similar, to help you remember that this IDLE has Pygame installed.
  6. Drag the pygame IDLE icon to your Desktop. This will allow you to access the correct IDLE for Pygame programming right from your Desktop.
  7. Double-click the pygame IDLE icon. The Pygame-enabled IDLE editor window will open. Type import pygame and hit return. IDLE should respond with a >>> prompt and no errors.

You’re ready to program Pygame apps on your Mac!

If you’re tough enough to make it through all these steps, and you’re enjoying Pygame on your Mac, please leave a comment and let me know (also leave any corrections/issues) – I hope these instructions will help others have as much Pygame fun as my sons and I have enjoyed these past few years. Cheers!
