xubuntu is not any good in Python programming. It is the developer that can be good or not good.
xubuntu is a version of Ubuntu with the XFCE desktop, as opposed to the Gnome Shell desktop in the regular version of Ubuntu. The actual desktop environment does not make a fundamental difference in how good a platform (here GNU/Linux) is for a certain task.
Linux, so by extension Xubuntu, is the platform by excellence for developping, and preferred by many developpers, to the extent that developpers also use the Ubuntu based Windows Subsystem for Linux on MS Windows.
Linux is a less favored platform for games. Game developpers target the most widely used platforms first. Still, significant progress was made in more recent years, not in the least because Steam also became available on Ubuntu. For light gaming, you will be good. Again, it will not matter whether you use Xubuntu or another Ubuntu flavor.
