The Forest is the first world in Super Meat Boy. Due to being the first world, it is fairly straightforward to pass through and is by far the easiest world in both the Dark and Light versions of each level. The first few levels are tutorial-like for beginners.

After beating at least 17 levels, the boss of this world is unlocked, called Lil' Slugger. Dr. Fetus uses a large vehicle with a chainsaw on the front to try and kill Meat Boy. All Meat Boy has to do is reach the end of the level while dodging the saws and staying ahead of Dr. Fetus. Sprinting is required to stay ahead of him to reach the goal. Once he makes it to safety, Lil' Slugger will break down and the boss level is over; Chapter 2 will be unlocked.

The music for Chapter 1 is as follows: "Forest Funk" for the Light World, "Ballad of the Burning Squirrel" for the Dark World and "The Battle of Lil' Slugger" for the boss.
