Hello from a fellow Malaysian. It seems like you're interested in web design/development but may have interest in developing games as well. While it is possible to do both, I think it would probably make sense to explore both at a very basic level now and see which one you would want to spend your time developing your skills in. While I do not make games, I understand there are many aspects to the process that could require different technical skills. For example, you could be interested in writing the code (i.e., writing the program itself), or you could be interested in designing the game (i.e., rendering the characters, environment, etc.). While you can learn to make video games yourself, it is difficult and people usually gain their expertise by going to school for a degree in game design or production. Certain programs focus only on the design element of games, but others are more well-rounded and will teach you how to code, develop stories, and introduce you to the business aspect of the gaming industry.
Creating a website, on the other hand, may be less complicated than making games. But even within this realm, you need to figure out if you're interested in developing the website (i.e., writing the codes) or designing it (i.e., thinking about the layout of the website, how it should look to end users, and how you want your users to be able to interact with it). Again, you can definitely teach yourself to create a website, or you could also complete a diploma at a local college after your secondary school education. Since you're only 13, you can always go on youtube and watch tutorials on how to make games and websites. That will give you an idea of your area of interest so that you can begin develop your skills in that specific area.
