Is the VIENNA GAME good?

I found it very useful and solid

But the thing that I like best is the VIENNA GAMBIT!

Not a real gambit but it's very aggressive and cool

Its great! For some unknown reason I didn't like it when I was <1300 and have been avoiding it at all costs. But when I realized I need a new opening I decided why not and gave it a try. It helped me climb up to 1800 and I love it now. Even at 1700-1800 rating my opponents still don't know how to play against it(especially gambit line), don't play the mainline and I usually get great positions after opening. It will always be my recommendation to anyone who wants to play fun and interesting chess.

Yes, it is solid development.
After 1 e4 e5 2 Nc3 Nf6 3 f4 d5 is better than the passive 3...d6

I wanted to do a different opening that’s not the London because there’s 2 counter gambits and lots of traps is this opening good at beginner level?
