*i *o *a *ə *i: *o: *a: *ə:
*io *ia *io: *ia:
*oi *oa *oi: *oa:
*ai *ao *ai: *ao:

CCAVCC syllable structure maximally where A is an approximate. Some CC clusters were disallowed initially and finally such as stops+stops. In addition adjacent labials, coronals and velars assimilate to the place of articulation of the next consonant of the same place of articulation.
Consonants marked with a voiceless diacritic are slack voiced rather then fully devoiced.

Proto-Whatic

/pʲ pˠ t k ʔ/
/bʲ bˠ d g/
/ɸʲ ɸˠ s ç x/
/βˠ ɹ ʑ ɦ/
/ɮ r/
/mʲ mˠ n l̃ ɲ ŋ/
/j w/

/ɛ o i ɨ u/
/ɑː ɛː oː iː uː/

Nasality spreads leftwards from nasal consonants through voiced continuants and glottals; additionally, vowels after nasal consonants are always nasalized.
ɮ > ɮd before a nasal vowel.
ɲt ɲd > ɲc ɲɟ; [c ɟ] don't appear otherwise.
The short vowels are realized [ɜ ɔ ɪ ɨ̞ ʊ].

Do sequences like /mʲo/ or /mˠi/ occur, or are palatalized and velarized labials only phonemically distinct as codas?

Good question. I think the only onset contrast between palatalized and velarized labials is between /mʲ mˠ/ before unrounded vowels, since *w > mˠ / _Ṽ. But I think I'll add another umlaut rule to fix this. Also, /ɣ/ should be /ɦ/.

I had something even more different, but now it's more like a slight modification of yours:

/pʲ pˠ t k ʔ/
p p t k ʼ
/bʲ bˠ d g/
b b d g
/ɸʲ ɸˠ s ç x/
f f s c x
/βˠ ɹ ʑ ɦ/
v r z h
/ɮ r/
l rr
/mʲ mˠ n l̃ ɲ ŋ/
m m n nl ni/in ng
/j w/
i u (j w after /i u/ if that ever occurs)
/ɛ o i ɨ u/
e o i a u
/ɑː ɛː oː iː uː/
ā ē ō ī ū

No additional nasalization marker when the surrounding consonants make it clear, otherwise cedilla; i and doubling for bilabial front/back mismatch.

/ʔosomˠũ ʔɛːŋɨ̃ mʲindɛːndɛː βˠo βˠuː ɛtɛtnwomˠ βˠo umʲɛrɛ mˠomʲɛnt | ɑː iː çuːɮɛçwoːɮɛ doːɦɛŋ βˠo xondɛ pˠoɲɛswombˠ || ʔoɸʷoɲɛ̃ kɛrwo ɲɛʔ ɲɛɲɛrɛ bʲɑː βˠo ɦɛtɛːs || ʔɛː ʑiːmˠ ɸˠoɲɛɸˠoɲɛ̃ mʲirwoɲdɛ çɑː ɦɛtɛmʲɛ̃ | ɑː l̃ɑː pˠoːmʲ l̃iŋkut iː çumʲɛɮɛ̃ | ɑːj l̃ɑː kŋɑ̃ː tuːŋõ çwoːr l̃ɑː ɸˠoːʑ ŋuɮɛŋɛ̃/

My original idea had digraphs for the long vowels:

ʼOsomu ʼaenga mindaendae vo vou etetnuom vo umerre moment, aa ei coulecuaole daoheng vo xonde poñeswomb. ʼOfoñe kerruo ñeʼ ñeñerre biaa vo hetaes. ʼAe zeimm foñefoñe meirruoñde caa heteme, aa nlaa paoim nlinkut ei cumelȩ, aai nlaa kngaa toungo cwaorr nlaa faoz ngulenge.

Tserzou has some processes involving semivowels, but it's not that crazy. I'll see if I can remember how it works.

Something like that. The idea was that initial/medial yod was absorbed by the following vowel. Then wV[+front] > V[+front +round], which isn't even listed in my sound changes because I added it while i was writing the wiki page.
