You need to drag the egg from your inventory and drop it onto the terrain with the interaction/dialogue. After that, you can grow a new plant - and command it to grow tentacle-like roots to climb the canyon wall.
As for the lactation mechanic, it's unlocked through the story. It works like a power: in the world I imagined, the protagonist has (almost) full control over her body, so she can activate it at will - though, up until now, she never had a reason to use it.
Interesting project, though it seems to be very very early in development, so I will give it some time to cook.
But maybe this wasn't just visible from the few preview images, but it seems like lactation does not cause the PC's nipples to get darker and expand, now while this isn't the most important thing that the game needs right now, it seems odd if a game where pregnancy is going to be a major core feature needed to progress etc, not having one of the key changes that happens during a pregnancy seems weird to me.
Granted its new project etc, but at least an option to enable disable darker nipples would be appreciated in the future, especially if the character is some bio altered individual that has ''(almost) full control of her body, so having the ability to choose ones nipple color does not seem too unreasonable to me. (assuming all of this is in the game already)
A few things off the top of my head are below,
Some form of either visual, textual or combo of both an informational-do-this-to-continue, once the conversational explanation is done.
inventory is a too big (never would I ever thought to state this for any game) if drag and drop going to be your m.o. for inventory management shouldn't need to take up the whole screen (maybe half or third with drag bar) until window scaling is implemented.
Some methodology to ping and highlight points of interest in the world; maybe using energy (refilled with food) to do a ocular scan of the current world space (i.e the current environment she is in) could be implemented (since she does have implants)
Timer on the duration of items
Food being in inventory as item with duration instead of an instant use.
Other then these things it has promise and best of luck to you and yours in the progress of development.
It's planned, but not for now:
In the Oasis Act, the protagonist will discover a new ability - she'll be able to change the type of milk depending on the type of pregnancy (though not all pregnancies will trigger this). Also, at some point, she'll need to parasitize her breasts to progress the story.
Those events change nipple coloration, and when the time comes to implement that, I'll include different nipple colors based on pregnancy/lactation states - it's on the "to-do" list.
For now, I kept things as simple as possible - I'm still learning how to make a game.

As for the inventory size:
Yes, I know it's too big for now, but there's a reason - when I implement the clothing/equipment system, the inventory will be resized and reworked to manage equipable clothes.
About the POI ping/highlight - that's a good idea!
I'll add it, but not in the next release, probably the one after that.
Right now I'm focused on the first lewd encounter of the Oasis, so the next dev release will be based on that content.
Regarding item duration:
There's no real-time spoilage - the food spoiling in the Canyon Act is just a scripted event that triggers when you approach the desert, and it serves as an excuse to introduce the breast food storage mechanic.
For the rest, food is a resource: it's used to activate certain abilities and progress pregnancy, but it doesn't persist between scenes unless specifically stored.
So the presence (or absence) of food item in the inventory depends on the story context and the puzzle you're trying to solve.
In the next dev update, there will be a new areas (the Oasis) and a new encounter for the new act.
The first part (milking phase) of the scene for the new encounter is done, and the second part is almost finished - just needs a bit more work!
I think I can upload the dev version this week (hopefully)!
Finally, the DEV build is here! (is in the main post under the Dev Build spoiler)
This build wraps up Act 0 - Canyon and begins the first part of Act 1 - Oasis. It includes the first new encounter (with all its animations: sleep, milk, xxx, birth) and the first 3 zones of the area (and now you can use the dialogue system to use the item).
And no Android build yet - you'll need to wait for the public release for that.
But keep in mind: this is still a DEV build, so some parts are under construction.
(like the bed in the oasis glade is something you'll need to craft instead of being available by default.)
How to access the new area:
By finishing the final dialogue of Act 0 (with max milk and not pregnant),
Or from the main menu, by starting a New Game and selecting the option to jump directly to the beginning of Act 1 - Oasis.
In the next few days I'm planning to open a Discord server. I still need to figure out the settings and rules.
And i plan to make the public release by the end of this month, hopefuly.

Unfortunately no - the next updates are focused on finishing the dev build and preparing it for the public release. I still need to add and sync the sound for all the scenes of the new encounter, update some backgrounds, add scenery items, write the codex, etc... So, adding new creatures will have to wait a bit. I hope to finish this part by the end of the month, so it can go public and be ready to start the next phase of development!
I assume it's a bug but I can't store food. I have food available, but the buttons stays greyed out and clicking it does nothing. I have tried going through another pregnancy cycle thinking it was maybe tied to that but it didn't seem to do anything.

I forgot to make the 2 buttons invisible until you unlock the power to store food... my bad... But it works: that power is unlocked when you try to enter the desert with the fruit from your "offspring" and they rot. To avoid this and be able to store food without it spoiling, the power to transform it into milk is unlocked. (Or at least that's how it should go)
Good News Everyone!
Oasis Dev Update 0.2.1 is here! (is in the main post under the Dev Build spoiler)
With this build, I've finished all the background areas for the Oasis section (but attention: the Oasis Act is not finished yet - there are still more sections to add). I've also implemented sound and - finally - music!
I've added some QoL improvements: an option to see POIs directly on screen, d the ability to use an item on yourself straight from the inventory (by pressing a button on the left), without having to drag & drop it onto the character.
This is not ready yet for the public release. I still need to add all the new dialogue, events, descriptions, and codex entries.
But I think I'll be able to release the public update next week (hopefully) with also the Android version.

Hi everyone!
The public release is almost here - all the dialogues, events, and codex entries are done. I've also implemented the patch system to make future dev updates and fixes lighter to download (though I still need to run some tests to be sure it works properly - hopefully it will!).
With this release, the Discord server will also go online.
If all goes well, I should be able to release the public version by the end of this week!

Finally, the public update is here! (v0.2.2)
This update contains all the additions from the previous dev releases, plus the new dialogues and codex entries (see the changelog for the full list).
What's next?
There's a lot coming! Act 1 is divided into 4 major sections: Oasis, Underwater Ruins, Underground City, Wasp Hive.
The next phase will most likely be the Underground City (this section is closely tied to the others), and it's going to be a huge part of the story.
About 10 - 15 years ago, I played a Flash game with a similar premise. A girl crashes a spaceship onto a planet and has to fight her way through several levels with enemies and bosses. If she loses, there's an animation, and at the end, after a successful start, the heroine turns around while reminiscing.
The plot here seems similar, I'll give it a try one of these days.
