## What it is
A collection of Google Colab notebooks and scripts that spin up a temporary cloud gaming PC with an NVIDIA Tesla T4 GPU, install Steam, and stream games to a local device via Moonlight over Tailscale. It lets users with low-end hardware play AAA games for free using Colab's GPU runtime.

## Use cases
- play AAA games on a low-end PC without a GPU
- stream Steam games from a free cloud GPU
- set up a temporary cloud gaming machine with Google Colab
- use Moonlight and Tailscale to stream games from the cloud
- run Doom Eternal or GTA V on a weak laptop
- get a free virtual gaming PC with NVIDIA T4

## When to choose
- you have a low-end PC but want to play demanding Steam games
- you want a free cloud gaming setup without paying for GeForce Now or Shadow
- you are comfortable with Colab session limits and re-setup per session

## When to avoid
- you need a persistent, always-on cloud gaming machine
- you want a supported, ToS-compliant service (Colab usage for gaming may violate Google's terms)
- you need guaranteed low latency or long uninterrupted sessions
- you require a project with a license or active maintenance guarantees
