      Is there a way to add homemade games from Python or scratch to Retropie, I wanted to make some of my games feel a little more like a real console title. Is there a way to do this without serious knowledge of Retropie

        You'd need to know how to add a menu to Emulation Station, as well as how to make use of launch scripts. I can't imagine it being one tenth the difficulty of creating your own Python games. Here's a link to a few people discussing the specifics...
