Snowy is the 17th track in the Undertale Soundtrack. This song plays while the protagonist traverses Snowdin Forest, the wilderness to the west of Snowdin Town.
In game, this song plays slightly slower than the OST version. It starts at 0.95x speed after the first encounter with Papyrus, then increases to 0.96x speed after the Electricity Maze, and then finally to 0.97x speed after the Tile Puzzle.
On the True Pacifist Route, a distorted version of this track plays as the protagonist fights Snowdrake's Mother in the True Lab.
During the Genocide Route, the song starts at 0.4x speed, then increases to 0.5x speed after Papyrus' Electricity Maze, and then to 0.6x speed later. Occasionally after a cutscene, the music will play at normal speed, although this does not always indicate the failure of the route.
