The title speaks of itself, I keep pressing them by mistake and lose my games progress , is there anything like Samsung game launcher to disable those keys? (I can't install Samsung game launcher for some reason)

Welcome.

Do you mean something like Samsung's Game Tools feature, but for a non-Samsung phone?

Do you have a dot to the left of the virtual buttons? Tap it twice.

Yes sorry I mean Samsung game launcher.
P.S. I have Samsung and I used to use game launcher but I experimented a lot on my "rooted" phone and I messed up the game launcher , (I tried everything to fix it but couldn't). That's why I'm looking for something that looks like it.

SOLVED!

I found a solution, by using Automagic and Tasker Autoinput plugin we can easily Remap everything in the screen.
In the flow below , when a game (brawl stars) starts then do the below actions (disable keys, display ongoing notification to enable keys whenever I want, and a toast)
