## What it is
A Windows application that overlays a playable lunar lander game on the file copy progress dialog, using the progress bar's terrain as the game landscape. It runs from the system tray and offers difficulty settings and themed worlds based on copy state and system settings.

## Use cases
- play a game while waiting for large file copies to finish
- entertain users during slow network transfers or VPN copies
- customize game worlds via Windows high contrast and color settings
- create custom terrain levels using OS color settings

## When to choose
- you spend long waits watching Windows file copy dialogs
- you want a fun, lightweight novelty app for Windows 10
- you want infinite procedurally varied terrain from real copy progress

## When to avoid
- you are not on Windows (requires Windows 10+)
- you need a serious productivity tool rather than a novelty
- you need a game that runs standalone without a copy operation

- artifact type: application
