'''''Project M''''' is a [[gameplay modification]] of ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' designed to make the gameplay more closely resemble that of ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', as well as ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' to a lesser extent. ''Project M's'' primary change from ''Brawl'' is that the speed of gameplay has been generally increased and the character landing lag is shorter, alongside the restoration of many ''Melee'' mechanics and elements, such as the addition of {{PM|Mewtwo}} and {{PM|Roy}} after their absence in ''Brawl''. ''Project M's'' development team was partly descended from the original developers for ''[[Brawl+]]'', later known as the '''PMDT''', or '''Project M Dev Team''' (formerly the '''PMBR''', or '''Project M Backroom'''), having members from over ten countries.<ref>http://wii.ign.com/articles/122/1223403p1.html</ref> Development of the mod officially concluded on December 1st, 2015, with version 3.6 being the last official release of ''Project M''.

Development of the mod officially concluded on December 1st, 2015, with version 3.6 being the last official release of ''Project M''.


''Project M'' has been commonly featured at several [[national tournament|national]] [[tournament]]s, such as the Zenith series, [[The Big House (tournament series)|The Big House series]], and [[Apex 2014]], and it remains the most popular gameplay mod of ''Brawl'' in tournament settings. Starting in 2013, ''Project M'' saw a rapid rise in its popularity as more characters became playable and the mod became more familiar at Smash tournaments. By 2014, it began to develop its tournament scene, with the number of entrants for Apex 2014's ''PM'' singles event notably surpassing the number of competitors for ''Brawl''. Despite the end of ''Project M's'' official development, it still has been able to maintain its tournament presence separate from ''Brawl'', including the formation of its Backroom, the New PMBR, on July 21, 2016.<ref>http://pmunderground.net/index.php/articles/9-articles/45-introducing-the-new-pmbr-and-pm-tier-list-2</ref>

''Project M'' only supports [[NTSC]] versions of ''Brawl'', and no [[PAL]] build was ever released. As a result, running ''Project M'' outside of NTSC regions requires either homebrew as to allow the Wii to run an NTSC version of the game; or an imported Wii.

''Project M'' has two different versions: Full Set and WiFi. The former has Stock Control and Input Assistance as new features, which allows newer players to use advanced techniques better and have a stock advantage over experienced ones. However, [[Replay]]s and online play do not work properly as a result of [[L]] and [[R button]] light-presses causing [[online desynchronization]]. Replays are now functioning with the inclusion of Fracture's replay mod. The WiFi version allows these two things to work properly, and while it keeps the former version's battle features, these are not implemented for online play, likely because Stock Control would have caused potential [[griefing]] within matches (by the distant opponent always choosing the maximum amount of stocks). If a ''Project M'' replay is in regular ''Brawl'', it may cause malfunctions when beginning a match, possibly because of the stage replacement.

Both versions massively alter the original ''Brawl'' gameplay to more closely resemble that of ''Melee'', along with other changes to make the game more competitive in general. It maintains ''Brawl'' techniques such as [[crawl]], [[wall cling]], and [[DACUS]].

The following mechanics have been altered to match their ''Melee'' forms:
The following mechanics have been altered to match their ''Melee'' forms:
*General amount of [[freeze frame]]s reduced.
*General amount of [[hitlag]] is reduced.
*No [[buffer]]ing by default, though players can turn on ''Input Assistance'' to implement a three-frame buffering window for helping newer players master advanced techniques, replacing the "Damage Gauge" option. Online matches instead have a different Buffer option that replaces handicaps, from 1 to 30, with these numbers being the respective amount of buffer [[frame]]s.

*All characters have faster [[falling speed]]s and [[gravity]] (except {{PM|Sheik}} who has lower gravity). Gravity also no longer adds onto the knockback formula.

Line 63: Line 63:
*Time window to input a [[DACUS]] successfully is now 2 frames, and using Z instead of A does not reduce the window. {{PM|Kirby}}, {{PM|Donkey Kong}}, and {{PM|Diddy Kong}} can no longer DACUS as they have unique dash attacks which can go off ledges although this only negatively effects Diddy. Some characters who previously had an ineffective DACUS now have a more effective and useful DACUS although the average length of a lengthy DACUS is significantly shorter than in ''Brawl''.

Some characters who previously had an ineffective DACUS now have a more effective and useful DACUS although the average length of a lengthy DACUS is significantly shorter than in ''Brawl''.
*Ability to use to the C-stick to dash attack and up smash during a dash retained, making it easier to perform sliding up smashes and DACUSes.

*[[Tether recovery|Tether recoveries]] reimplemented instead of reusing ''Melee'''s [[wall grapple]]s; however, they are better than before. Tether recoveries now ignore [[edge-hog]]gers; characters will still latch onto the ledge without affecting them, and when pulled up they will perform an automatic jump get-up. While characters with tether recoveries will fare better on the ledge than in ''Brawl'', the jump get-up has extreme lag and puts them into helplessness if they do not land on the stage. Also, a missed tether recovery causes helplessness like wall grapples.

*All [[up special move]]s (except for {{PM|Mewtwo}}'s [[Teleport]], {{PM|R.O.B.}}'s new Robo-Booster, {{PM|King Dedede}}'s [[Super Dedede Jump]], and {{PM|Meta Knight}}'s [[Shuttle Loop]]) now allow characters to grab the ledge backwards before putting them into helplessness or otherwise shortly before their descent. This is opposed to a select few in ''Melee''. Some [[side special move]]s (such as {{PM|Captain Falcon}}'s [[Raptor Boost]], which retains its ledge sweetspot from ''Brawl'', as well as {{PM|Falco}}'s [[Falco Phantasm]]) exhibit this trait as well if they slightly overshoot the ledge from behind.

*The [[grab release glitch]] is now an intentional feature used as a balancing tool for select characters. It has been altered also to remove the victim's ability to air dodge in addition to their up special move, though it also restores all their double jumps.

**"[[Bunny Hood|Bunny Mode]]" is moved down to the "status" row from the "head" row (replacing "[[Franklin Badge|Reflect]] Mode") while making room for "'''0 to Death Mode'''" (written in-game as "'''Regen Mode'''" to fit the available space), which recovers all damage taken after one second of not receiving any hitstun.

**"Angled Camera Mode" is replaced with '''All-Star Versus''', which allows players to use different characters (or simply costumes) for each stock. This is done by selecting a character, then pressing B to hover off them, and hitting A to the next character. The order of the characters selected become the order they appear in. Required character selections are based on the stock count. If the selections are less than the stock count, the remaining stocks loop back to the first character (so selecting Mario, Luigi and Peach in a four stock match will loop back to Mario in stock four.)

This would later on officially be a feature in the series with the introduction of [[Squad Strike]].
***Should each player select their characters in All Star VS Mode before turning on Team Battle; the characters will not be forced into their team battle costumes akin to ''Smash 4''. Also, the random option will always use the default costumes of the characters even in team battles.

*Characters now instantly grunt when hit by a strong attack, as in ''Melee'' and ''64'', while in ''Brawl'' they did a second afterward. There are also medium-damage and high-damage groans as well, with most characters using unused voice samples from the [[Sound Test]]. Characters now also use voice samples for [[sidestep]]s and [[air dodge]]s, and variable voices for [[smash attack]]s.

In addition to the many universal changes, every character received several individual adjustments in order to balance the game properly. The roster was largely buffed overall, creating an extensive collection of viable characters with varying playstyles, strengths, and weaknesses. However, certain moves were nerfed to further flesh out some fighters and break their dependence on repeated use of a single move or small set of moves. Some ''Project M'' characters are based on their appearances in ''Melee'' (such as {{PM|Captain Falcon}} and {{PM|Jigglypuff}}) while others are modified from their ''Brawl'' versions or a mixture of their iterations from both games.

[[File:SSS Project M 3.6.png|thumb|The Stage Selection Screen in ''Project M'' 3.6]]
In addition to characters, stages have also been completely overhauled: many stages were replaced or given tweaks and revised layouts to make them more competitive friendly, additionally new ''Project M'' original stages were added in. Starting with 3.6 beta, holding the L button while selecting a stage will load an alternate stage layout shown in a small preview under the main stage preview, and for Peach's Castle HD and Hyrule Castle HD, holding the Z button will load the original N64 version of the respective stages.
''Project M'' contains 42 stages selectable normally, and 27 alternate stages (that appear in a small preview under the main stage preview and are selectable by holding L before pressing A). Two stages, Peach's Castle HD and Hyrule Castle HD, have a second alternate stage that does not show a preview and is selectable by holding Z instead of L.
{| class="wikitable" style="margin:1em auto 1em auto;"
 
Among the normally selectable stages, 3 are original to ''Project M'', 11 are altered layouts of ''Brawl'' stages, 6 have minor changes from ''Brawl'', 4 are ported from ''Melee'', 6 are ported from ''Smash 64'' and mostly given HD revamps, and the remaining 12 are unchanged from ''Brawl'' (including [[Past Stages]]).
 
Among the alternate stages, 1 is original to ''Project M'', 1 is an altered layout of a ''Brawl'' Past Stage, 1 is ported from ''Melee'', 8 are ported from ''Smash 64'', and the remaining 16 are unchanged from ''Brawl'' (including Past Stages).

(Standing below one at the time will not inflict any damage, but will likely trap the player underneath it as it falls below the bottom blast line.)

The left and right edges have solid bridge-like platforms. A [[Thwomp]] (with hitboxes) hangs above each bridge platform, and once per minute<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20150817001217/http://projectmgame.com/en/news/project-m-3-6-full-changelist</ref> one will shake and then fall to destroy one of the bridge platforms. Standing below one at the time will almost certainly lead to a bottom blast line KO. After some time, the bridge regenerates, followed by the Thwomp.


The alternate layout removes the destructible bridges and Thwomps, brings the side blast lines significantly closer to compensate, and adds three platforms above the main stage with the middle one very slightly raised.

[[File:Turbo.png|thumb|An image of the Turbo item.]]
In version 3.0, the [[Curry]] effect was replaced with the "Turbo" effect. In Turbo mode, players can cancel any successful attack, upon hit or shield, into any other action except the same attack, and all [[aerial]] attacks [[auto cancel]] when landing if they hit. Certain moves, such as [[Farore's Wind]], consist of multiple actions and can thus be canceled into themselves. Turbo Mode has been compared to the ''Marvel vs. Capcom'' series because it enables skilled players to perform extensive [[combos]].

The PMDT did not publish an official [[tier list]]. On March 26th, 2014, [[CLASH Tournaments]] published [[Template:PMTiers/1|a preliminary tier list]] for version 3.02, followed by [[Template:PMTiers/2|a finalized tier list]] on November 14th, 2014. {{PM|Mewtwo}} notably received a perfect score of 10 out of 10, putting it in its own tier, the God Tier.

No tier list was ever released for version 3.5, though it was a general agreement that only two characters could be considered "bottom tier": {{PM|Olimar}}, whose recovery was too unreliable, and the {{PM|Ice Climbers}}, who suffered from a physics glitch that often caused [[Nana]] to self-destruct.

Version 3.6 fixed the Ice Climbers' and Olimar's issues, and a second [http://pmunderground.net/index.php/articles/9-articles/45-introducing-the-new-pmbr-and-pm-tier-list-2 tier list] for version 3.6 was later released. Many fighters that did poorly in ''Melee'' and/or ''Brawl'' saw large improvements in their tier placings. Examples include {{PM|Mewtwo}} going from the low tier in ''Melee'' to the top tier in ''Project M'', and {{PM|Captain Falcon}} notably going from the bottom tier in ''Brawl'' to the top tier of ''Project M''.

The Project M Backroom released a third [https://smashboards.com/threads/the-project-m-backroom-releases-new-pm-3-6-tier-list.450025/ tier list] for version 3.6, which, published September 9th 2017, is the most recent and widely accepted one. {{PM|Donkey Kong}}, the Ice Climbers, and {{PM|Sonic}} rose the most on the tier list, while {{PM|R.O.B.}}, {{PM|Roy}}, and {{PM|Fox}} dropped the most. Mewtwo entered the top three again, while {{PM|Kirby}} and {{PM|Bowser}} remained the second worst and worst characters in the game, respectively.

The legality of ''Project M'' is ambiguous: by itself, and much like any other hack, the mod is a {{S|wikipedia|derivative work}}, for it branches directly off of a copyrighted product. While derivative works are not inherently breaches of any law or rule, the patch files for the mod include various copyrighted assets not present on the original disc, such as the [[Fountain of Dreams]] stage. In addition, the act of launching ''PM'' relies on circumventing some protection on the console, thereby breaking the console's {{S|wikipedia|end-user license agreement}} and warranty. Likely as a result, ''Project M'' has not been featured at any tournaments sponsored by Nintendo, as doing so would essentially be sponsoring hacking their own consoles and misappropriating their assets and characters.

Though Nintendo has not given a formal response to ''Project M'', policies enacted by the company have suggested that it does not approve of the mod. One of its policies included issuing bans for mentioning ''Project M'' by name on any of Nintendo's [[Miiverse]] channels for constituting "criminal activity". This had the potential to result in [[wikipedia:Scunthorpe problem|erroneous bans]] when talking about other subjects such as the development team of ''{{S|metroidwiki|Metroid: Other M}}'', which was also named "Project M"; bans could also be issued for using the abbreviation "PM", even if it was referring to another game or series such as ''Paper Mario'' (although this was allowed on the ''Paper Mario'' community) or when used for miscellaneous purposes (such as denoting the daily time-span between noon and midnight).

In October 2014, it was announced that ''Project M'' would be dropped from the lineup of [[Apex 2015]], with many qualifying tournaments also suspending their ''Project M'' events. While some qualifiers did feature ''Project M'', no official online streams were available for such events apart from [[B.E.A.S.T 5]], which was streamed on [[VGBootCamp]]; commentators on streams provided by VGBootCamp were also reportedly instructed to not mention ''Project M'' while on air. These were strongly suspected to be a result of intervention from Nintendo, which had previously begun involving itself with the competitive community, such as through the [[Super Smash Bros. Invitational]] at E3 and a video presentation from Nintendo of America's president [[Reggie Fils-Aimé]] at the conclusion of [[EVO 2014]]. A later announcement in January 2015 stating that Apex had officially partnered with Nintendo for Apex 2015 gave further credence to this theory.

It was not until November 2020 that former Smashboards writer Linnea Capps, in response to an anonymous "informed Smash insider"'s [https://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1srfu4r Twitlonger] explaining Nintendo's history of inhibiting the growth of the ''Smash'' community published earlier that day, [https://twitter.com/LiteralGrill/status/1331117838690623488 made a twitter thread] revealing that, at the time, [[Twitch]] was attempting to form an official circuit with Nintendo's help, and doing so required that they remove and ban all ''Project M'' content on the platform, including Apex's tournament for it. Twitch offered to help director {{Sm|Alex Strife}} make an official statement on the matter to avoid any extended criticism he would get, but following [[Smasher:Alex Strife#Controversy and disappearance|allegations of him harassing other players]], the offer was rescinded. In an unreleased interview Capps conducted with Strife months after Apex 2015, he revealed that players tried and ultimately failed to receive payment from Twitch in exchange for no longer streaming the mod.
Throughout the rest of 2015, ''Project M'' continued to decline in presence. Many major tournaments dropped ''Project M'' from their rosters; VGBootCamp, which became well-known for popularizing the mod, later announced that they would no longer stream ''Project M'', and subsequently removed all such content on their channel; and monetized streams on [[Twitch]] faced difficulties regarding streaming the mod and its questionable legal status. On December 1st, 2015, the ''Project M'' Development Team ultimately chose to conclude the development of the mod, shutting down their official page, removing the download links from the site, and leaving a farewell message on the main page; the site itself was later taken down{{fact}}. Officially, the developers felt their work on the last version of ''Project M'' was complete, and the numerous group members chose to follow their original endeavors. However, this message was contradicted by the fact that various art assets, such as additional alternate costumes, had been posted to the team's Facebook page following the release of v3.6 with a planned inclusion in a future version, as well as by the fact that a PAL version was explicitly planned though never released. Although a [https://twitter.com/MrRyanMorrison/status/671943222848069632 tweet] claimed the end of development was not the result of legal issues, a [https://www.facebook.com/Mewtwo2000/posts/724185831014518?_rdr=p later statement] from a former member of the development team argued that ''Project M''{{'}}s development was in fact shut down as a preemptive measure for fears of potential legal action from Nintendo.

The insider explained how, around this time, many companies and esports organizations began attempting to work with the ''Smash'' community, following in [[Twitch]]'s footsteps to form a ''Smash'' circuit, only for intervention by Nintendo to halt many of those efforts. Nintendo reportedly told them that they refused to work with the community for featuring ''Project M'', but even after support for the mod waned, there was no major progress in establishing them. {{Team|CLASH Tournaments}} founder {{Sm|Chia}} also published a [https://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1srfurr TwitLonger] explaining how Twitch had given her and many other streamers one last major ''Project M'' stream before being disallowed from ever streaming the mod again: CLASH Tournament's final ''Project M'' stream was March 2015's {{Trn|Shots Fired}}. Twitch had also forced her to not mention anything about the situation or she'd risk losing CLASH Tournament's partnership with Twitch. In an attempt to make it easier on the streamers, Twitch asked them to provide financial analytics of how much they earned with streaming ''Project M'' and promised that they'd pay similar amounts of funds for a short time, but this also never came into fruition; Chia wrote that she believed Twitch did not want to follow through with this and only did so after pressure came from Nintendo. Capps further detailed that [[hitbox.tv]], a platform that rose in popularity for streaming PM content after Twitch gradually phased it out, even hired someone specifically to coordinate with the ''Smash'' community, only to suddenly fire said coordinator after a failed attempt to create a circuit with Nintendo's help and gradually remove PM content from its site as well.
Though the decline of ''Project M'' was commonly attributed to either avoiding litigation from Nintendo or the company directly forbidding it, this speculation remained unconfirmed until November 2020. In the 24th of that month, an anonymous "informed ''Smash'' insider" posted a [https://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1srfu4r Twitlonger] explaining Nintendo's history of inhibiting the ''Smash'' community, which several members of the community would go on to corroborate.<ref>[https://twitter.com/OXY_Crimson/status/1331064248416440323 Crimson Blur's tweet]</ref><ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0yIcyyCe2Jw Armada's YouTube channel - "NINTENDO TRYING TO KILL SMASH: Part Two"]</ref> According to the Twitlonger, many companies and esports organizations began attempting to work with the ''Smash'' community, only for intervention by Nintendo to halt many of those efforts. Nintendo reportedly told them that they refused to work with the community for featuring ''Project M'', but even after support for the mod waned, there was no major progress in establishing them. Later that day, former Smashboards writer Linnea Capps [https://twitter.com/LiteralGrill/status/1331117838690623488 made her own Twitter thread] revealing that [[Twitch]]'s efforts to form a circuit required that they remove and ban all ''Project M'' content on the platform, including Apex's tournament for it. Twitch offered to help director {{Sm|Alex Strife}} make an official statement on the matter to avoid any extended criticism he would get, but following [[Smasher:Alex Strife#Controversy and disappearance|allegations of him harassing other players]], the offer was rescinded. In an unreleased interview Capps conducted with Strife months after Apex 2015, he revealed that players tried and ultimately failed to receive payment from Twitch in exchange for no longer streaming the mod. She further detailed that [[hitbox.tv]], a platform that rose in popularity for streaming PM content after Twitch gradually phased it out, even hired someone specifically to coordinate with the ''Smash'' community, only to suddenly fire said coordinator after a failed attempt to create a circuit with Nintendo's help and gradually remove PM content from its site as well.


On December 1st, 2015, the ''Project M'' Development Team ultimately chose to conclude the development of the mod, shutting down their official page, removing the download links from the site, and leaving a farewell message on the main page. Officially, the developers felt their work on the last version of ''Project M'' was complete, and the numerous group members chose to follow their original endeavors. However, this message was contradicted by the fact that various art assets, such as additional alternate costumes, had been posted to the team's Facebook page following the release of v3.6 with a planned inclusion in a future version, as well as by the fact that a PAL version was explicitly planned though never released. Although a [https://twitter.com/MrRyanMorrison/status/671943222848069632 tweet] claimed the end of development was not the result of legal issues, a [https://www.facebook.com/Mewtwo2000/posts/724185831014518?_rdr=p later statement] from a former member of the development team argued that ''Project M's'' development was in fact shut down as a preemptive measure for fears of potential legal action from Nintendo.
{{Team|CLASH Tournaments}} founder {{Sm|Chia}} also published a [https://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1srfurr TwitLonger] explaining how Twitch had given her and many other streamers one last major ''Project M'' stream before being disallowed from ever streaming the mod again: CLASH Tournament's final ''Project M'' stream was March 2015's {{Trn|Shots Fired}}.
