pro tip: game devs are shit at coding. there's a loop that runs every frame, and you have to make stuff happen in it. pick a C-based language (I heavily advise against python if you wanna do it professionally) and just write a bunch of shit loops that let you run a character left and right on a screen and jump. If this gives you a thrill, continue with it. it's really fucking fun. if it doesn't, leave game dev in the dust because holy shit its exhausting.

Also, please avoid javascript. That language is really REALLY weird and it can make debugging a bitch sometimes.
