The art and atmosphere here is really lovely, I love the way the game screen blends into the itch page background. Overall the game has a very cozy and calm feeling, and the nurturing section at the start is by far my favorite aspect, it's so sweet and cute! It's a little unclear the direction of the game though, the mechanics all seem interesting (and I like the flight minigame) but it's hard to tell what's possible to interact with, and once you start being able to click to move the pigeon the button interaction doesn't quite work the same. More clear UI to show what is and isn't available could make a huge difference. Like if the "egg" option isn't available, have it greyed out and un-selectable, or a negative sound when you try and interact. Button feedback in general is very helpful from a player perspective. The contrast on the full/empty hearts could be a bit clearer too -- I didn't notice the difference for a while since it was so subtle.

Thank you so much for playing, yeah I really struggled with how to make the buttons obvious they were disabled with the colour palette, and by then I was running out of time (poor time management on my half oops). There is a difference but it is far too subtle, the negative sound seems like a good idea! thank you for the suggestion <3
