Question

Why does pygame.event.get() give this error?

error: video system not initialized

The code is functional but gives this error after performing the function.

pygame.event.get()
while not pygame.mouse.get_pressed()[0]:
    key = pygame.key.get_pressed()
    if key[pygame.K_SPACE]:
        pygame.quit()
    pygame.event.get()

The program quits but gives the above error.

I think you’re missing a call to pygame.init to initialize pygame modules.

For more information, please have a look at the pygame introduction.
