Music composed, performed, and produced by; GinNger SparklezZz Stoob Steve Smith aka The Smivets Mike Bennett aka FendrGuitPlayr Morten Gjermundsen Bruce Elliott aka Swampman & the Machine Michael Duran The story, prior to the Future being removed.. Planet Fusion, ruled by the evil Fuse, has traveled throughout the galaxy for millennia, devastating and absorbing countless planets and civilizations, creating evil copies of everything it absorbs, and its next target will be the planet Earth, specifically the Cartoon Network universe. Now the player must join forces with the heroes and villains of the Cartoon Network universe (both past and present) to save the planet and defeat their common enemy Fuse. When first beginning FusionFall the player is thrown into the future due to an error caused by Dee Dee while testing Dexter's time machine. The player learns that Fuse has almost destroyed the world, and is given a short tutorial with Computress, Ben Tennyson, and Numbuh Five, on the basics of playing the game, such as running, jumping, looking around, and fighting. After the tutorial, the player is given a Lightning Gun rifle and is thrust into the middle of the battle of Tech Square, where many FusionFall heroes are fighting for what's left of Tech Square. The player must defeat three Fusion Spawns and a Cyberus, and then complete two training missions. The first one involves defeating an Oil Ogre transmitting information to Fuse and retrieving the transmitter for Numbuh Two. The second one is a Nano mission. Buttercup explains about infected zones, shows you how to warp in and find Fusion Lairs, and helps save Dexter, who remembers you from the time machine. Then, together, you fight Fusion Buttercup and earn your first nano - Buttercup. After warping out of the Fusion Lair, the player lands on top of Dexter's house, where a Tech Wing stands in the way of you getting out. The player then must use the Buttercup nano to stun the Tech Wing, before narrowly escaping Tech Square as it sinks into the Fusion Matter, taking many heroes with it, including Blossom, Bubbles, Numbuh One, Ben Tennyson, Dexter, and Larry 3000. Dexter sends a final message to his floating ship, where the heroes, including Buttercup, Numbuh Two, Numbuh Five, and Samurai Jack, have escaped. Dexter informs the player that he is "fine" and that they must repair the time machine to stop Fuses' invasion from the past. Still in the Future, the player completes several missions for various characters before assembling a time machine with the help of several heroes, and uses Dexter's Time Lab to be warped into the past after earning their level 4 nano. ..Of course.. Since the Future has now been removed.. All players residing in the Future were transported to Sector V in the Past, and that is what happens when you go mucking about with time machines.. Training and initiation will now begin at stage one of The Academy, The Null Void. DexLabs, the Plumbers and Providence have joined forces to create this training evironment. All FusionFall players now begin here, replacing the Future as the "new beginning" of the game. The training academy includes three main areas: the Null Void, the Providence HQ Containment Area (sometimes called the "Petting Zoo"), and finally, Mt. Neverest. The four heroes who help you through training are Ben, Finn, Lance, and Rex. And the three Nanos received throughout training include Finn, Rex, and Alien X.

Lyrics
Spring Forward, Fall Back Lyrics by Steve Smith. Season follows season Starlight follows sun Little variation The ritual carries on You always know what's coming Always know what's gone Never making progress Each one much the same as the previous one But each new sun seeks to arrange A subtle unpredicted change Like a performance on a stage Each time the curtain rises Spring forward, fall back Let the reins go slack It's just the way things are Que sera sera Wishing for the future Yearning for the past Instead of cherishing the here and now Though we know how briefly it will last It's only here for a moment Just a moment then it's gone So take it while we have it And delight in each new one Look beyond the setbacks Take the ebb and flow Don't expect an Edinburgh suntan Or Louisiana snow So let's cast away the baggage For now relax and then Take a moment to enjoy just Holding hands again Spring forward, fall back Let the reins go slack It's just the way things are Que sera sera Spring forward, fall back Learn to love the almanac If progress were this hard Who'd have guessed we'd get this far?

Very nice tune with a very British sound, the tune could be a never released jam by Harrison/McCartney. The production is top notch with the drums banging away and keeping the song moving. The whole piece is topped off by the magnificent vocal work from Steve. Wonderful job by everyone!

I'm loving this and it's not even ended yet. Great instant appeal, hooky and a solid authentic song that sounds like it must be full of vitamins.

Gentlemen, This is a beautiful piece. Musicianship top shelf. Really like the lap steel great addition. Vocals are excellent on every level and production is very professional. Bass really stands out.

Steve's vocals are great (as usual) with some cool echo/doubling fx as well. The bass sounds great - nice guitar work as well. The lap steel sounds great Michael. If it's a "FusionFall Project" you know it's going to be good! Nice collab Michael and Steve.
I like to spring back and fall forward myself. That vibe, that burbling bass, that voice and melody - I'm really digging this and I haven't even figured out what the song is about yet. I'll stop typing and listen. ***** isn't enough.

Really chuffed to be a part of this one. Great work on this MD - such a pro sound! The lyric does read a little more depressing than I intended - it's supposed to say "relax, everything's fine". Which actually it is.
