Running Pygame Zero in Thonny

[PolarBear123]

Hello! Is it possible to run a game in Python using Pygame Zero in the Thonny Python IDE?
When I do:

Code: Select all

import pgzrun
...
pgzrun.go()

it gives me an import error, you can't run this code from an interactive interpreter.

That's what we get too.
So we use IDLE3 or Mu. (Both on the Pi)

Anyone know anything more about this?

PyGame Zero works fine on my Pi in Thonny but not on the Pi's used at the Code Club I volunteer at.

Version of pygame, version of Thonny?
(I think it has pygame zero mode now, not needed if you have the import iirc.)
my does pygame zero too.?

But what problem are you seeing ?

But I think it will be the version of Thonny, it needs updating (it didn't used to work)
