So when a function is called, old frame pointer get pushed by the callee, new frame pointer gets updated from mov EBP,ESP.

So from now on whenever I do [EBP + 14] where is the data coming from?

My EBP pointer is at 0x003CF214 and my Game.exe starts at 0x00905A4D. So all the data is before Game.exe?

It's coming from the stack, it's the arguments pushed to the function call.
