, just like I wouldn't use C# too write a video game.
This is not accurate advice. You can use C# and Visual Studio with addons to write video games or just about anything. Seems like C# has the most versatility bc of cross platform coding options that's available.

There are so many tutorial options you have to use them to see which ones work best for you. I could give you a list that I like, but they're mostly c#, so probably wouldn't do you any good.

Try some video tutorials on youtube. If you like what you try, see if the maker has a series or other videos loaded. A lot of people have posted very long tutorial series. Using youtube can be difficult, though, unless you use a 2nd computer or monitor.

Actually it is accurate advice, you simply missed out on reading comprehension. I said, "I wouldn't use..."
You can use HTLM and java script to write a video game, but you're not going to get the fire power you would out of a low level language like C or CPP.

C# is designed for business application not graphic intense applications like video games.

If you're going to offer advice, at least clarify points or know what you're talking about.
