Ganondorf is a playable character in the Brawl mod Project M.

Attributes

Changes from Melee to PM

• Midair jumping height increased.
• Forward and down tilts are those of Brawl, but the former can now be angled and both possess less ending lag.
• Dash attack has its speed from Melee, but uses Brawl damage and knockback values, being much stronger.
• New up tilt: Ganondorf lifts his foot, then brings down an electric stomp of high reach. Lasts for about 70 frames, and hits twice, much like Captain Falcon's u-tilt in Smash 64, with the second hit having strong power and knockback. Foot lift deals 8% damage, then the stomp does 22%, for a total of 30% (3% more than the Brawl up tilt).
• Forward air retains its sourspot from Brawl, but it was decreased in size and now has the strength of his Melee f-air, with the sweetspot having slightly better knockback.
• Can now DACUS.
• Down smash's hits now link better.
• Warlock Punch keeps Brawl format, and it can also be turned around a maximum of five times.
• Retains Flame Choke from Brawl. Grounded version does 12% damage (4% more) and it can now be teched, serving more as a tech-chasing move, while aerial version still sweetspots ledges and can pull off sacrificial KOs (though the latter is situational due to him now possessing better edge-guarding tactics).
• If Flame Choke is used off an edge, Ganondorf will go into the ending animation of the attack instead of instantly becoming helpless, so he can grab it and come back to he stage.
• Dark Dive not only has got its Melee power for grabbing attack, but it keeps animation and uppercut from Brawl, as well as being able to grab edgehogging characters for powerful stage spikes and possesing a large edge sweetspot, making recovery safer.
• Wizard's Foot has its sourspots removed for both grounded and aerial versions. They also have less ending lag.
• Up throw has less base knockback so it can follow-up better. It also uses its Brawl animation.
• Down throw's knockback scaling weakened for increased chaingrab potential.
• New up tilt has decreased knockback scaling and can no longer drag opponents towards Ganondorf.
• Forward smash is no longer a horizontal finisher, giving fastfallers a better resistance against it.
• Aerial Flame Choke now sends foes away from Ganondorf upon landing, making it harder to combo into other moves.
• Lack of Gerudo Dragon leaves Ganondorf with less combo finishing options.
• Forward tilt uses a slightly different animation: Ganondorf no longer drops his leg after the kick, but instead retreats it to himself quicker, having less lag.
• Sweetspot of forward air has a darkness effect. Dark Dive now also makes Ganondorf briefly flash purple during the uppercut portion.
• Back air posseses an electric effect. Both it and neutral attack now also use a different "punch" SFX similar to that of his side taunt.
