PyCharm won't import PyGame

Question

I'm fairly new to python and decided to try PyGame only to find it won't import.

line 1, in <module>
    import pygame
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pygame'

I am on windows 10, I am using PyCharm Build #PE-182.3684.126, and I pip installed it through CMD. I have reinstalled PyGame twice so far and it still won't work. If anyone can provide advice it would be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

Open your PyCharm project. Go to File->Settings->Project->Project Interpreter. There will be a list of all installed modules on the current python environment you are using. If pygame is not listed there, it hasn't been installed for that PyCharm project (using that python environment).

You can install it by using PyCharm interface, just click on the + sign and search for pygame and click install.

Answer 2

I think I solve the problem. I had the same problem as well and the reason is I think you need to specify version and fill in the option before you click the install button in Pycharm. For example my version is 1.9.6 and the option is I fill in the sentences below the Author which is "A community project". This is basically how i solve my problem try to get pygame install in my pycharm. I hope you are having the same problem too.

So go to : File->Settings->Project->Project Interpreter

Click the plus button '+' on the top right window Search for pygame and fill in the version and option Install Package It works for me at last!
