I think you are frustrated because you are trying to skip a few steps.
You are assuming because you have learned to program you are now ready
to program a 2D side scrolling game. The problem is you are lacking a
couple of skills. First you have not studied graphics programming. And
second you have not studied game programming (which is not the same as
graphics programming).
Once you understand these two then you will be ready to look on the
net a study in detail how to create a 2D side scrolling game like this
