Item mechanics
Get the seeds from the parents, plant, collect the egg and hatch in the incubator. As soon as the parents come to pick it up, deliver it before they lose patience and leave. Pay attention and give it to the correct parents, otherwise they will leave but come back to give it back. Hint: Memorize the clothes.

Turns out I had to install ffmpeg before building the WebGL version on Unity3D otherwise the audio didn't get converted... I reuploaded the build with that fixed, but we only had time to add 2 audios: a background music loop and a sound effect for the incubator.
I like the art! It's not super detailed but its very clear and clean. I can confirm the sound works now, and the music is relaxing. Over all a very nice game, Well done!
We would have gauge bars to indicate parental patience. There would also be these gauge bars in the vase and incubator, in this case you would have to remove them before they burn what's inside.
We would have nurseries to organize the babies
Overall a nice entry, just wish there were at least a couple more levels
