Which game works best with XNA software?

Overcoming the hurdle of learning a new language, learning the XNA framework AND learning the ins and outs of game development is going to make it tough, especially with only one month to complete your project. If you were already familiar with C# and had made some simple games before, I'd say no problem.

To make it realistically possible, I'd recommend looking at the tutorials of various completed games out there. I know there are Arkanoid, Italian Plumber, Breakout, Overhead shooters, 1942 style plane, Bunny shooting and yes Pong games source and tutorials out there already at the top XNA sites.

Make sure you keep the scope small and not get to caught up in feature creep or get distracted in making a game engine when all you really need is a working game.

Good luck, it's going to take a lot of focus, determination and hard work for you to get up to speed and completed in time. I'd settle on an idea fast (something VERY small in scope) and get to work immediately. No seriously, stop whatever you're doing now and start.

Have you started yet? What are you wasting time for reading this, you need to get started!
