Gold Time: Flour Street 2

Collect 10 dough and 550 gold in 3:30.

Immediately buy 3 chickens. Upgrade the Egg Powdering Factory once. Sell off the bear that lands, and start processing eggs into powder. Once you've sold a bear, buy some flour. Start making dough.

Don't upgrade the Dough Factory until you reach 550 gold, but then go nuts :)

My Best Time is 3:06.

Gold Time: Flour Street 1

In 3:30, you need to make 12 egg powder and 6 dough.

Start by selling off 3 chickens, to make enough money to buy the Egg Powdering Factory. As bears attack, sell them (and 1 more chicken, too) -- you'll need a bit of cash to buy 6 flour, don't forget. Eventually, upgrade the Egg Powdering Factory to make 2 egg powders at a time, and turn your egg powder into dough.

Best Time, 2:35 -- bam!

Gold Time: Crossroads 1

Buy the Dough Factory before playing this level.

Your goal is 2 dough in 2:00, which is quite easy and this level is pretty much just here to teach you how to use the dough factory and airplane.

Send your airplane to market to buy 2 flour. Build the Egg Powdering Factory, and start making egg powder as your chicken lays eggs.

Sell bears and egg powder. Once you have 200 gold, buy the Dough Factory and start making dough from eggs and flour.

2:00 is very easy; I get 1:37 without much trouble.

Gold Time: Egg Street 3

You need to upgrade your Egg Powdering Factory before you can play this level.

In 2:20, you must accumulate 6 eggs, 4 egg powder, and 200 gold. There are a couple approaches that will get you gold time...

(1)
Start by sending one of your two chickens to market, putting your total at 190 gold. Buy the Egg Powdering Factory and start processing egg powder. When a bear lands, send it (and some egg powder) to market... a single chicken can lay 6 eggs in approximately two minutes, and you will meet all the level goals. (Best Time with that method, 2:04.)

(2)
Hold on to both chickens until they each lay an egg (~0:20). Send 1 chicken and 1 egg to market; when the truck returns, your 200 gold goal is met. Buy the Egg Powdering Factory and start processing egg powder.... my best time 1:44 with this method, and I haven't tried to really streamline it yet.

Gold Time: Egg Street 2

This is the first level after the training level (and if you need a walkthrough to help you get through a tutorial, you probably need more help than I would be able to provide)...

You need to collect 4 eggs and 2 chickens in 1:30 to get gold.

Since you start with one chicken, you need to buy another. (Duh, right?) Once Chicken 1 lays an egg (~0:20), send it to market in the truck. Once it returns (~0:40), you'll have 100 gold to buy Chicken 2.

Chickens lay eggs approximately every twenty seconds, so this game plan gets you 4 eggs in just over one minute. My best time is 1:02.
