What type of game? The more complex your game is, the more you'll need to organize your code, so I highly recommend learning object oriented techniques. Please be a little more speficic on what you have in mind. The simplest game I can think of that you can create is a "Guess The Magic Number" Game where you generate a random number, go into an infinite loop, and break out of the loop when the user guesses the generated random number.

My first game I wrote was an rpg(made it yesterday), so yes..I am new as well. As a matter of fact, I've only been learning c++ this month. Anyhow, make an RPG where you choose your character and battle enemies...it isn't as complicated as you would think.
