Forest Island
Forest Island (also known as Volcano or Grass Island) is the first island of five islands in the Gobbo Archipelago, and the one that Croc washed up on when he was a baby. This is the Island that King Rufus, king of the Gobbos, resides at. In it's center sits the Gobbo Valley where all of the Gobbos reside.
The island consists mostly of hills and grass, with many caves filled with lava. Lava flows outside the caves too, often in rivers. On top of the island's largest hill is a boxing ring.
Shortly after Baron Dante initially invaded Gobbo Valley, him and his Dantinis trapped 36 Gobbos in boxes, cages, caves, and various other prisons throughout the island, including King Rufus, the leader of the Gobbos.
Additionally, off the coast of this island rests two hidden secret islands, which Croc could only access after freeing a set amount of Gobbos, hidden on each of these islands was a puzzle piece (see 1-S1 and 1-S2 below).

Bosses
Tooty the Feeble - 1-B1 Lair of the Feeble
Originally a duck, Tooty was enchanted by Baron Dante into a larger, more threatening creature. He is seen on Lair of the Feeble, the fourth level of the first island and the first boss Croc encounters. Croc is given a circular arena in a forest and Tooty will chase after Croc until he is out of breath,
Tips
Let him chase you until he takes a swing, then while he's recovering, attack him. Tail-attack him when he stops and takes a short breath and he will chase you again. Do this three times to defeat him and complete the level.
Flibby - 1-B2 Fight Night With Flibby
Welcome to the Arena! Baron Dante had super-sized Flibby the Ladybird into the Flibby the punching Ladybird with boxing gloves and it's up to Croc to save him. He appears in Fight Night With Flibby, the ninth level of the first island and the second boss Croc encounters. The arena consists of a boxing ring where Croc must defeat him.
Tips
Flibby will attempt to punch you, but avoid his attacks, and then tail-attack him. Flibby will fall to the floor, at which you point you stomp on him. Do this a further two times, avoiding his attacks, and you will be to continue onto the second island, or the second secret level of the island, The Twisty Tunnels if you have collected all 6 gobbos from the previous 3 levels
