Have you tried this: https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv Also, I’m not sure its really the right place to ask such questions. I am replying simply b/c I know that these things can be frustrating and difficult to work through sometimes, but I really think that Stack Overflow might be a better place to find help if you need more help than the link given in the error message.

[Distutils] Re: Installing Python Modules
Awesome, thanks! I did do that prior to receiving your email. However, I'm still getting an error message from python. First it's telling me about wheel that wasn't properly installed. Then I run the same code but with wheel, and it says installed successfully. And I run the code again with pygame, but I get this error (see attached). I have no clue how to fix this. Thanks a bunch for your help.

[Distutils] Re: Installing Python Modules
If you have Python 3.8 and wants it to be installed to the Python 3.8 environment, do: python3.8 -m pip install pygame I also recommend installing it to a virtual environment like venv. Hope this helps.
