Lose/Lose is a video-game with real life consequences. Each alien in the game is created based on a random file on the players computer. If the player kills the alien, the file it is based on is deleted. If the players ship is destroyed, the application itself is deleted.

Upload on public computers for lulz.

I would assume you'd need administrator clearance to affect files outside of the My Documents folder in most machines. Probably not all though.

But say, if you're a student, you could go into the library where loads of people without external hard drives are stupid enough to save their things, and blast them into oblivion!

My idea of fun at others' expense, fulfilled!

It sounds like a cool idea. It's got an interesting Russian Roulette kind of feel to it. If I had a computer that was on its last legs and was going to be wiped anyway I'd definitely install it.
