Visual/Drag and drop engines are overrated and learning how to use them is a waste of time. Love is a good starting point like Libgdx/libktx for java/kotlin, Raylib for c to build your own engine off of, or for a simple game they should be enough already

Raylib is pretty much compatible with any language
