Awesome! I also started coding when I was about your age 👍

Check out this tut on Pygame. It shows you how to do basic movements.

Pygame main advantage is that there are many tutorials for it. Also can be a disadvantage because some of those tutorials can be very old and outdated, written for Python 2. Here is a good one:

Another option is the arcade library that is a more modern approach.

(these contents are free but require a login... realpython has also many other useful resources, articles about Python features)

And one more option you can check is Ren'Py which can be used to create Japanese style visual novel games - this is a quite specialized piece, but easy to get into, if you have a good story.
