When I checked PyGame, that was ages ago, and it looked a lot like a (higher-level) SDL wrapper to me, but more Pythonic. Although, coming from C++ and having used SDL before, I decided to use a more direct SDL wrapper instead. So I created my own simple ctypes-based wrapper (https://github.com/albertz/PySDL https://github.com/albertz/PySDL). But this is not really updated, and there are newer ones (e.g. https://github.com/marcusva/py-sdl2 https://github.com/marcusva/py-sdl2).
Anyway, I don't want to say these are better. It's great that PyGame is still active (again).
It's great to have such simple libraries to write games. Also for educational purpose, or just for fun. E.g. I wrote this (https://github.com/albertz/PyOverheadGame https://github.com/albertz/PyOverheadGame).
