Unable to install pygame on Python 3.8 via pip (Windows 10)

Question

Currently unable to install pygame via pip. Getting this message:

Concerned by it being termed an EOF error, is this an error in the modul

Answer 1

the above commands worked for me today 3-15-20 with Python-3-8-0 on Linux Mint 19 to get IDLE to recognize pygame.

sudo pip3 install pygame==2.0.0.dev6

I also had to update pip first with

sudo pip3 install --upgrade pip
