I deinstalled tk and changed my code to your suggestion, but there is still the same error. If i run:
$ pip3 show tkinter
then there is the output:
WARNING: Package(s) not found: tkinter
Looking at it calmly, @dmt is right, the libtk8.6.so library that comes with the tk package is missing. You can check if it is in your system with this command:
ls /usr/lib/libtk8.6.so
That library comes with the manjaro tk package. You can install it with:
pacman -S tk

The tk package is missing. But if I try:
pacman -S tk
there is an error:

but die error still exists. If I try to run the programm in vscode der is still:
bin/python /home/(my username)/Dokumente/Programmieren/Python/SpielTkinter.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/(my username)/Dokumente/Programmieren/Python/SpielTkinter.py", line 1, in <module>
from tkinter import *
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'tkinter'
Does it work in a terminal?
vscode will need to be configured, not sure I can help with that as I donât use it.
It seems to be using a different python interpreter, one that doesnât come with tkinter.
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/69603788/how-to-pip-install-tkinter - spoiler: you canât
TL;DR Change the python interpreter that vscode uses.
preferably donât use VSCode. Use IDLE or Spyder or PyCharm.or KDE Develop or something else.
Where are you using pip install ⌠? It is preferable that you use pip install ⌠in a Python virtual Environment. But if you have set up the pyvenv then tkinter will be included in the venv.

Now it works in Console. I try to do it with Visual STudio now, but if it doesnt work Iâm going to switch the IDE.
Thanks to you all for your help. I learnd much and the most important stuff works.

You probably set up a custom environment (willingly or not) where itâs using a different Python environment than your systemâs one.
Happy to see itâs solved, but credits for the solution must go to @dmt as he told us which was the real problem.
