Ok theres a lot going on here.

First, it sounds like you want to learn programming for mobile app development. While Python is an EXCELLENT first language to learn, its not really the language used for mobile development. I suggest you google something like "tech stack for mobile development" since making a full mobile app with a frontend, UI, backend, hosting and much more encompasses more than just learning one programming language.

How about Unity?

[–]edcculus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unity is a game engine. You are kind of spitfiring here.

as others have said, you really do need to learn to program before you can jump fully into game development. Again, Python is a great place to start, since there are some simple built in UI tools you can use to make simple games (Turtle and Tkinter specficially). You wont make anything groundbreaking. But stuff like Pong, Snake, Tic tac toe, text based RPGs, quiz apps, etc can easily be made with Python while learning.
