Fermata Forest is the third level Jimmy visits in Sweet Melody, it has a changing seasons gimmick and is arguably the most expansive level in the game.

By stepping on the floor panels next to the large statues, Jimmy can change the seasons between Summer, Spring, Autumn, and Winter. The different seasons Affect enemy appearance and behavior, it also affects which treasures are available, as some can only be accessed in certain seasons. Jimmy's tattle also changes depending on the season, as well as a unique one when in a cave.

## Seasonal Effects.

### Summer

In Summer the level is much greener than the other seasons, and has fallen tree trunks and vine ropes allowing Jimmy to traverse the level.

Super Balls can be bought during the summer.

Tattle: *"Jimmy should be careful or he'll get a sunburn."*

### Spring

In Spring the level is much pinker, and has blooming flowers that contain toy-boxes and allow Jimmy to walk over the water, it also has the aforementioned vine ropes.

Cherry Bombs can be bought during the spring.

Tattle: *"The pollen makes Jimmy's nose itch."*

### Autumn

In Autumn the level is more red and orange; there are fallen logs as well as mushrooms which block off parts of the level, but can also act as staircases which lets Jimmy climb to areas that the vine ropes did not let him.

Roman Candles can be bought during autumn.

Tattle: *"Jimmy's dad told him not to eat any mushrooms in the forest."*

### Winter

In Winter the water is frozen over, letting Jimmy walk over it, but no other means of traversing the level are open to him. The fountain in the middle of the level is also frozen over, not allowing him to heal.

Smoke Bombs can be bought during winter.

Tattle: *"Jimmy wishes there were more people around so he could start a snowball fight."*
