1.9.1 Packages (August 6th 2009)

Source

• pygame-1.9.1release.tar.gz ~ 1.4M - source/docs/examples in unix format
• pygame-1.9.1release.zip ~ 1.5M - source/docs/examples in windows format

Windows

Get the version of pygame for your version of python.  You may need to uninstall old versions of pygame first.
NOTE: if you had pygame 1.7.1 installed already, please uninstall it first.  Either using the uninstall feature - or remove the files: c:\python25\lib\site-packages\pygame  .  We changed the type of installer, and there will be issues if you don't uninstall pygame 1.7.1 first (and all old versions).

• pygame-1.9.1release.win32-py2.4.exe 3MB
• pygame-1.9.1release.win32-py2.5.exe 3MB
• pygame-1.9.1.win32-py2.5.msi 3MB (python2.5.4 is the best python on windows at the moment)
• pygame-1.9.1.win32-py2.6.msi 3MB
• pygame-1.9.1.win32-py3.1.msi 3MB

OSX Snow Leopard, using the Apple provided python.  This only works with 64bit cpus... so some older mac minis, and old PPC based macs will not work with this.   (Get this one if you are on an up to date recent mac).
