Unusual Moon and Clouds

Early Version with a working title, basics are in but testing for usability and bugs while planning next steps.

Place the moon in your view of the cloudy night sky.  Use it as decoration on a big screen, a backdrop or just go on and howl at it. :)

Preset panel lets you quickly place the moon, or you can change mode to have the moon follow your clicks.  Change the color, size and rotation for exactly the right mood.

Effects can be enabled too for something more sparkly.  If the cloud motion seems choppy, enabling effects will probably slow things down more.

Close the settings side panels using the X's at the bottom of the screen.

Runs in full screen windowed mode to start.   Exit by hitting the Escape key, Control-Q or Command-Q ( Mac only ).  

 If you see Windows Defender when trying to run the exe, click on 'Learn More' and then you can click on 'Run Anyway'.

On the Mac when trying to run the app for the first time, you will get an alert about not being from an identified developer.  Click on the Cancel button.  Under the Apple menu, go to System Preferences > Security & Privacy under the General tab and click 'Open Anyway'.  Despite this setting change, you will still get one last dialog to confirm you want to open the app.
