About me

My name is Paul "Motobug" Canavan, and I am a digital artist from the Massachusetts looking for work.
This site will take you through the highlights of my design and video editing work.

Project+

Project+ is a fan modification of the video game Super Smash Bros. Brawl for the Nintendo Wii. Commonly touted as "The Best Smash Bros. Mod of All Time" and covered by sites such as Wired and IGN, Project+ (formerly Project M) is the most popular mod of a console game ever created. As of early 2020, I am a developer on the project, with my most notable contributes including designing and implementing overhauled menus as well as our new character, Knuckles. Project M and Project+ combined have over one million downloads lifetime, with our newest large release reaching 100,000 downloads within just two days, and its trailer currently at over 700,000 views.
