Need help with levels

Have been playing a while as downloaded on shockwave, but am stuck and could use some pointers on getting more coins. I am silver or gold on most levels, but still not able to get any further in game

I have been playing the free trial and I had problems with game also. I could not get past level 3. I was unable to use the Dyna Grow, I harvested Sunflowers and produced Sunflower Seed oil, bur couldn't figure out how to grow corn. I had 390 coins and needed 415 to move to the next level. I finally got so frustrated that I just removed the game from my system. I do not think I will be purchasing this game for my collection. I will keep checking to see if anyone post anything that might be of help, but until them I am moving on to another game. One that will make me happy, not sad.

You have to get Gold in the levels before you can move on. This is next to impossible to do.

I didn't get gold on all the levels and I made it all the way to the end. I did get stuck at one point because I didn't have enough points. I just went back to a level that I got silver on and got gold... that was enough points to move me past where I had gotten stuck.

If you had 390 in coins you should have been able to grow corn. You plant it just like you do the sunflowers and it uses the same squence of events but if you didn't buy the popcorn maker then you won't be able to make popcorn.

Some of them are pretty tough, I'll agree. Typically I try to save enough money to grow the most expensive crop first. It just makes it easier to do the lesser ones.

Has anybody found a good walkthrough yet? I've gotten about 1/3 of the way through but only gotten gold on the first 4 levels, despite replaying each level several times. This one gets difficult quick but I can't imagine there isn't a way to get gold on all levels.

Anybody finds one, please let me know!

I, too, am stuck at leI seem to always get the same score. This is such a fun game, but it is dissapointing to have to play certauivel 13. I keep trying to up my score on levels Bronze but haven't had much success. This is such a fun game, but it's no fun playing levels over and over. This is a definite game flaw, if you are listening, Sunshine acres designers! My sympathy to those of you also "stuck"!!!

One of the other posts suggested changing your pointer to the windows pointer in the options menu. I did this and have managed to pass 8 levels with gold so far. It shouldn't really make a difference but it does. I followed the same strategy with both pointers, but with the windows pointer I can finish with gold and 30 seconds or so left on the clock. Hope this helps.

I have manged to finish the game with Gold on 11 levels, Silver on 18 and bronze on 1.

The tips I would give are:-
Change your pointer to the windows pointer (via options)
Plant the most expensive plant you can as soon as you can (make sure you have the medicine before you plant the tomatoes or peppers)
Be choosy about the upgrades buy the Hydrolizer and the sprinklers as soon as, but not necessarily the oil press upgrades as I find you can still make the goals with out it.
Keep an eye on your goals to make sure you only make enough oil, popcorn as required(bottom right hand screen which you can check by clicking on it)
Dispatch your truck regularly even if its not full.
Pray your puppy digs up the clocks!
There are still some levels I cannot get gold on (level 6,20) but I'll keep trying!
Hope this helps
Good luck

I too was totally stuck and had just about had it. I read a couple of the other posts that said to change your pointer to the windows pointer in the options menu. It totally worked! I don't know why, but it did. I made it through to the end. Still had to replay a couple of the levels to get enough points, but it was much easier. Thanks for the great advice!!

I Played once where I got to a level and there was nothing on the ground no place to plant and no way to plant I knew it had to be some kind of flaw. So I closed out the game rebooted my comp and brought the game back up and it was the way it was suppose to be. So i would suggest rebooting if that has happened to you as its not suppose to happen.
