I am pretty young and feel like I have done everything i can on things like scratch and microsoft makercode and wanted to know if anyone knew a way i could upgrade from that to make games using c++ c# java script and python i only want to learn 1 of these coding languages for now and need some kind of FREE course online tutorials or websites i can learn from (most interested in c++ c#)

Try Unreal Engine's visual scripting. Easy and powerful! And once you more or less master it you should be able to hop onto learning written C++!

If you're interested in C#, that's what Unity 3D uses. And Godot relies on a scripting language very similar to Python, that also comes with a visual mode in recent versions.

I would C# before C++. C++ has many complexities that C# deals with for you. I haven't tried it myself but I know Unity bought Bolt which is a visual scripting language that might make the transition from blocks to C# easier for you.

I would suggest actually before you jump into a game engine that uses C#, just learn C# on it's own. Don't focus on games, just learn how to write code first. That will make Unity much easier to learn.

Try Godot I am Younger my self but coding is a breeze learned it in 1 month. awesome interface easy to use. It is almost perfect.
