There are millions of ideas that have been executed in the world of games, it's pretty much impossible to create an idea that's "100% original." Chances are, someone has already come up with the idea that you've come up with, or something similar.
All games are inspired and based off the ideas of another.
If this is purely for portfolio purposes, you should not be focusing so much on "originality" and rather, should be thinking about "functionality." It's a "programming" degree, not a "pro game designer" degree.
