Tutorials or "hands on" learning?
as for my 2D engine I am using Stencyl as it has a way to use blocks for programming and you could write out the code if you wanted to, it can create games that can be put in market places as well.
-
People in the gamedev industry, how helpful are gamedev courses in university?
Stencyl is a really easy game engine to use. https://www.stencyl.com/ you can probably bang out a few quick games with it as you follow their tutorials.

What 2D Engine Should I Choose?
Try Stencyl .

Where to start after scratch. (10 year old).
Stencyl! Build on Scratch but way more capable.
-
what engine to use?
For an easy start in game developing, I would suggest to try GDevelop or Stencyl. Both are an easy option to start from 0. Once you get a grasp on programming logic and how to do some basic things, you can move to other engines if you want to do things in 3D.
- If I loaned you $10k; what would you do with it?
-
I've been palying this game called Shatter, and i didnt recognise the engine it credited in the logos at the start... I then did some digging and couldnt find anything about it.
Never heard of stencil.. but I have heard of stencyl. Maybe it is a variation of it?

I'm a BAFTA nominated writer for video games, ask me anything!
If you're not the sociable type (you'll have to work on that because game making is first and foremost team work, but I understand it might be hard if you feel like you're not skilled enough), a lot of solutions exist to easily make your own games on your own, like Stencyl, or Adventure Game Studio. They'll barely require any technical knowledge, but if you really want to focus on writing, then you can even go with text-only tools such as Twine or Ink/Inky.

Exploring Raylib and Open Source
I selected this library as I normally use much higher-level tools to develop games such as p5.js, or GDevelop. Both these tools are amazing in their own right; however, I want to learn how these processes operate on a much lower level. These tools take care of a lot of issues for you ranging from asset to memory management. Raylib is still cross-platform but does not handle these tasks for the programmer which I feel will improve my programming skills.

Unity’s New Pricing: A Wake-Up Call on the Importance of Open Source in Gaming
It's not as monolithic as you'd think. There are lots of engines out there but their communities aren't very vocal compared to Unity, Unreal, and especially Godot's community.
Take a look at: https://itch.io/game-development/engines/most-projects
And
https://www.gamedeveloper.com/blogs/the-generous-space-of-al...
If you look at both of these you'll see just how many engines there are and neither of these cover everything. There are plenty of engines popular in the Python community that no one outside of it are aware of. Such as Arcade [0], Python-Tcod [1], Ursina [2], UPBGE [3], and Panda3D [4]. But based on your description you'd really like https://gdevelop.io/. It embraces exactly what you're describing where you can build a game but just installing entire features others have made and put online into your game.
