Write more about things you know/like. Also, how small (estimate lines count). With a not big number of lines you can write a small graphical game (using Qt or GTK) -- a kind of puzzles, for example.

The most important thing about game is idea. When you have it it's simple. Here are Qt tutorials/docs you may find useful:
