Hmm...
Go for a FPS. What are you building/coding it in?

That is awesome that you are making a game. Are you doing it as a project for a college course or simply because you want to do it and learn from the experience?
Nah, just to screw around, have fun.

That's still an awesome way to learn and get better at coding. :)

Are you wanting to eventually find a career in the gaming industry?

As for suggestions, it depends on whether you want to do what is more comfortable to you or challenge yourself, and only you know what limits you have when it comes to your knowledge of coding. I would say a racing game personally, but only because of the huge amount of FPS games that not only flood the market from actual gaming studios, but from Indie developers as well.

Yeah, id like a career in gaming. But I also really like mechanics.

Both. Have some FPS sequences followed by a car sequence.

C++ is way better for coding a game, it allows you to take shortcuts that you can't take in other programming languages.
The FPS im gonna make is gonna be simple as hell.
