Project M is a hack for Super Smash Bros. Brawl designed to make Brawl play more like Melee. The team who is designing Project M is descended from those who worked on Brawl+.
Universal changes
- Altered camera that behaves similarly to Melee.
- Game Settings Modifier (Set to 8-minute, 4 stock matches)
- Melee air dodge: Also known as MAD. The air dodge physics and mechanics used in Melee are used in Project M.
- Manual L-Canceling: Unlike in Brawl+, a player has to use L, R, or Z to reduce the landing lag of aerials, similar to how it was done in Melee and Smash64.
- Dash Dancing: Changed back to the dash dancing physics and mechanics of Melee.
- Crouch Canceling: Reimplemented from Smash 64/Melee.
- Down smash while holding down on the analog stick: In Brawl, if a player attempts to use a d-smash while crouching, they'll perform a down tilt. instead This does not happen in Project M.
- Ledge tech: The ability to ledge tech is reimplemented in Project M.
- Edge cancel: The Melee/Smash 64 technique to doing an aerial (or a recovery) onto the edge of a platform to cancel the ending lag is reimplemented in Project M.
- Jump cancel grabs: The ability to cancel a jump with a grab is reimplemented in Project M.
- Reflective powershield: Powershielding now reflect projectiles back at opponents, as they did in Melee.
- Taunt Canceling: From Smash 64, the ability to cancel a taunt is reimplemented.
- Melee shieldstun: Shieldstun from Melee is reimplemented in Project M.
- Removed auto-sweetspot ledges: The ability to auto-sweetspot ledges from Brawl has been removed in Project M.
- Tech window: The window of time for teching has been altered to match the tech window in Melee.
- Hitlag modifier: Reduces hitlag.
- Momentum capture: Transfer more momentum into a jump.
- Shield during dash dance: The ability to shield during a dash dance is reimplemented in Project M.
- Dash cancel: The ability to cancel a dash with a crouch has been reimplemented in Project M. This allows pivoting among other techniques to generally be performed easier.
- "Meleefying" characters, such as changes involving changing back characters to how they were in Melee, an example being how Falco's Reflector functioning how it did in Melee.
- Extra stages (Such as Dream Land, Hyrule Castle, and custom stages.)
- Charizard, Squirtle, and Ivysaur are now separate characters.
