Like the title says. I don't know how to program or what even goes into making a game. Does anybody have a good guide, study class, or even videos that can teach me how. Also good programs to use like unity or unreal or whatever makes vidya games tick.

There's a free online book, Invent Your Own Computer Games with Python, which is a gentle introduction to programming. It starts with much simpler games than engine tutorials do, in a very intuitive language and I might start there to see if there's real interest or aptitude before moving on to an engine (Godot looks cool).
