I learned to make games when I was pregnant with my son. This semi-autobiographical point and click  sci-fi fighter was one of my early efforts from back then. I reworked it for the REVIVAL track of 8 Bits to Infinity's (Re)vision Jam 2020. The original version is included here to show progress as per the rules of the jam but I strongly recommend playing the updated version.

Changes from the initial version to the present one:

- Made it scale to any screen size 

- Overhauled UI including switching to an ever-visible inventory system

- Improved combat by making the heroine glow when in punching range

- Changed from music of unknown provenance to Joshua McLean music

- Added written dialog alongside the spoken

- Changed some background graphics for improved clarity

- Fixed many bugs

I love this game its so funny and awesome :D

It's not everyday that I get to play as a pregnant women that gets to punch aliens in the face. I was full of smiles playing this :)

This was brilliant. We defeated the aliens on stream! nicole__he - Twitch

WONDERFUL animation and VO. THANK YOU.

Thank you so much for playing my game! Your stream was a delight to watch. I really appreciate how you preservered through the jankiness of my early efforts in game design. I am only disappointed that it froze for you at 14/15 before you got to see my cute baby. (He is now two-and-a-half now and loved watching your stream with me.) For a more polished but equally homespun gaming experience, you might enjoy my most recent game 'How We Spoke Before'. It is about linguistics. I have followed you on Twitch and look forward to watching more of your cool, pleasant, open-minded game playing. Thanks again!

Everyone in the discord loved this comment. Thanks for making the community smile!
