And there ain’t a walkthough to be found on the net, so I turn to you, dear readers, to put me out of my well-deserved misery. In addition to the items that transport my little hobgoblin from one infuriating level to the next I have, neatly arranged on the Cherry level, the following items: Flippers, 1 ea. Shroom, 2 ea. Donut, 1 ea. Cheese, 1 ea. Rock, 1 ea. Cake, 1 ea. Pickaxe, 2 ea. Key, 3 ea. Golden llama, 1 ea. Red present, 1 ea. (which is supposed to be opened by something on some level, according to one of the trees) Gold nugget, 1 ea. Bones, 2 ea. Opened chest, 1 ea. According to one site there is also supposed to be a banana and a piece of paper someplace, and I have no idea what to do with the nuclear weapons. Please help me finish this stupid thing. I have papers to write! [Click if you dare.](http://www.radicalplay.com/floweradventure/game.html) ---

Okay, now a true non-gamer needs some donut help. Where is the tree that needs the donut? _sighs_ But its loads of fun running around throwing/spitting flowers and digging up patches of dirt! ---

> [@Zabali\_Clawbane](#): > > How do you load a saved game? ☹ Oof. If your computer/browser has died, you’re going to have to start all over again from the Strawberry level. Yes, it DOES suck, but the upside is that you know how to get through all the sticky bits. Else you just click on “resume saved game” and soldier on… ---

Did you unlock all the doors you could with the key? Anyone know what the bones/fossils are for? If you give the tree on the rock level a doughnut he’ll give you a cake, then you can get to the carrot on the cherry level. The key unlocks the door to hell as well as the gravy train doors. ---

Still at it, and seems like I am in a circle… When come back, bring pie, and walk through. 🙂 ---

I went to school with the artist. How in the hell did you guys find him? Do I get to claim tertiary famous-ness for having him sleep on my livingroom floor one evening while I got busy with a Swedish nanny? He is very talented and his artwork creates some of the best graphic novel artwork I have ever seen. That and his close friend’s work that is equally impressive. Both have observable roots to “Heavy Metal” graphic novels. But the Flowering Nose is a flowering nose unto itself. After school he went to Japan, fell in love, yadayadayada. I was never a close friend, but he is part of the group that bought us the latest and greatest [Fantasy novel.](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=359294) Wow…these guys are being recognized by DOPERS! Like, wow. And stuff. Yeah. Do I get to be famous next? -Tcat [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/aight-gamers-the-flowering-nose-is-kicking-my-ass/345160.md?page=2)
