If you can use Visual Studio 2022 Community, I would use this in place of SharpDevelop. The main reason for Z-S to use ShartpDevelop is that is is much smaller and uses less Ram etc. Functionality it is very similar, but with VS getting external libraries (NuGet) or cross platform development (.Net 8) is easier. It is also fully supported, regularly updated and you will find much more www support for it.
VB or C# are very similar functionally, just different syntax. The main reason I tend to recommend C# is that its syntax is much closer to other languages like C++, Java, php or even Python so easier to transfer between them than from VB, but as I say the functionality is similar so VB is great if you are more comfortable with it.
As with AbsoluteBegginer's work wanting to use ANN for rabbit/snake AI game, I suggested he started with simple ANN test training to get an idea how it works before trying to use it for final objective.
Good luck and keep us informed of progress, maybe we can help along the way!
