60 of 194 · most liked firstOkay nah, this game's reviews are DEFINITELY getting botted. Look, despite my hours in this game (which WILL keep going up despite everything, because I'm stubborn and want to platinum this game regardless), this really is just a 'weekend project' with barely anything in it. It wouldn't even be worth 1$, let alone... 39.99$???!?!?! NAH, STEAR CLEAR OF THIS! I DON'T EVEN THINK ANYONE WILL SEE THIS REVIEW, THAT'S HOW DEAD THIS GAME IS, BUT PLEASE DON'T. EVEN. CONSIDER. BUYING. THIS. ty <3
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Your unusual MOBA game. Jump between rooms and activate nodes to capture structures which give you healing, increased damage and such. Game lasts a few minutes per round. Gameplay is not bad however there's no people playing it now so you're only left playing with bots. Visual side is simple yet reliable. Music is dynamic and fits in. Sounds are also ok. Not bad but can't recommend it though because playing alone is not that fun.

unlabelledView post →An isometric shooter in which the player has a choice of five fighter classes, constantly taking place in a randomly generated arena, giving the game excellent replayability. The game features pleasant, uncluttered graphics, simple yet enjoyable music, and fun gameplay, all of which provide a satisfying gaming experience.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is quite a sad review as I really want to be able to recommend this game. Here's the general details first. Deployment is an isometric tank shooter, base stealing, power up grabbing multiplayer game with free for all and team death match options. You can also go against bots only as an option if you didn't want to face other players just yet. The game has a plethora of options when it comes to your player load-out. There is the type of tank you'd like to choose from such as a gunner,…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is the closest to an actual game that I've played from this dev. If there were other people playing it it wouldn't be too bad, but as you probably guessed, it's a ghost town. Don't bother downloading this lol
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →39.99 Euro Scam 0/5
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Game is actually decent but it is completely dead (no players to play against). Do not buy :\
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Thumbs down for overinflated price just so they can sell it on sale. Besides that, the game is nothing extra. It is a PvP arena top-down shooter with some class-based system, but the servers are dead, and the bots are stupid.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →the reviews are botted
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Deployment to New Match City: Website v1.8.19 This just fixes a lot of little bugs. newmatchcity.com #indiedev | #gamedev | #indiegame
unlabelledView post →Heavy, dynamic, and requires reflexes. I played with bots, quite well.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →DEPLOYMENT is when they give you one set of weapons, and after that — survive however you can. The labyrinths keep changing, enemies never rest, and every mistake means a quick death. Don’t expect tons of guns and upgrades here — it’s all about reaction and quick decision-making. If you like adrenaline and intense action without any fluff — jump in and give it a try.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Incomprehensible, not interesting game, I never figured out what the author wanted to say with this game, but nevertheless it does not catch at all, I thought it would be interesting what is not ordinary, it was not usual, but not interesting, boring, the toy does not arouse interest, so I do not recommend touching it, it could be many times more interesting and better
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →what in the world did i buy? looks like someone spent a week in unity with default graphics and made a poorly implemented top down shooter lol. stay away.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not even going to bother talking about the game - it looks like maybe it could be decent, albeit severely under polished. This is a dead multiplayer game, you can play offline with dumb bots though. According to [url=https://steamdb.info/app/755980/charts/#3y]SteamDB there are only ever 1-2 people online, if any. It's also made by an extremely shady developer. They [url=https://steamdb.info/app/755980/]manipulated the price to $39.99 in July of 2025 so it would look better on sale for $4.…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Looks like a weekend project based on free Unity assets Pros: + concept was interesting + you can buy it for a dollar Cons: - keyboard was not working until a controller dongle was extracted - no substance behind flashy images - laggy even on low settings - low player base
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I got this game for under 1 euro from bundle and it was worth it for an hour of fun. It's a fun game but the player base is literally zero. I was the only one in the entire game which means you can only play against bots. That's still fun but it's definitely not worth 40 euros.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game was painful to 100%, The game is seriously not worth the price and for sure not worth your time. It was fun for the first couple hours but i'm stubborn to complete the game. The only mode that is playable is the offline with bots mode because nobody is playing. There are a lot of problems with this game and it feels like a roblox game. The bots deal damage after their dead. Also there might be a bug for bots to shoot while invisible, which might be why i die when there is nobody in…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →You sit and shoot your opponents with great interest. The game is very relaxing, so I recommend buying it!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's a pretty good game, but sometimes it gets boring, which makes you want to get through and out faster.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very good multiplayer game. I particularly liked how there were very many peoiple playing it and it was not just all bots. Hooked me for a whole 5 minutes, this is how i like my gaming!
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →good just dead af
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The adrenaline is pumping! Random arenas and a variety of classes make every battle unpredictable. I love capture tactics and team battles.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Deployment is a huge amount of fun and ultimately it’s just nice to sit down with a great gameplay experience and enjoy it.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very lively battles, despite the fact that they are robots :)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →DEPLOYMENT, developed and published by Whale Rock Games, is a fast-paced top-down shooter set in a stylized digital battleground where players control “Infosoldiers,” entities representing pure information locked in an ongoing conflict between powerful governments and massive corporations. The game thrusts players into this cybernetic war, focusing heavily on multiplayer competition with a minimalistic yet striking visual style that emphasizes clarity and speed over elaborate graphics. Its…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Pretty fun but niche multiplayer combat game. It was fun and had multiple modes for different types of game-play experiences. Overall fun.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →DEPLOYMENT Pros: ⚔️ Fast-Paced Action I think DEPLOYMENT offers some exhilarating fast-paced action. The game keeps you on your toes with its quick, intense combat scenarios. ⚔️🔥 🎨 Slick Visuals Personally, I found the visuals to be slick and appealing. The cyberpunk aesthetic is well-executed, and the environments look sharp and immersive. 🎨💻 🎶 Energetic Soundtrack The energetic soundtrack is a highlight. It perfectly matches the game's pace and adds to the overall excitement.…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I love Scorpions in general. Now in game there was always the delicate balance in position. Deployment usually fucks me over with them. But I've always loved the armor, the sleekness to them. If I had to pick an aspect it would be Scorpions, Spears or Spectres for myself to be. They are but ghosts
unlabelledView post →i keep running into bugs or ts just has no frames for me idk y or how
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This top down shooter didnt really click with me. There are just too many details on the screen which makes everything feel cluttered and hard to follow Ended up feeling pretty boring after a while
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ whale rock have done it again. Do these guys ever miss? Game of the year I say. Dont be fooled by my playtime, this is my smurf account. Some of the most fun I've had in years. Congrats to whale rock on another top hit
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A great dynamic shooter game with interesting gameplay! Simple yet exciting mechanics, nice graphics, and a good soundtrack. Perfect for short but intense sessions
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great tactical shooter! Exciting battles, unique classes, and smart point capture. Recommend!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →My robot is cooler than yours!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A decent game for an evening with nice neon-style graphics.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a cool shooter with a view from above. The game features 5 classes, each of them played in their own way. In general, when you have decided with the class you will have to fight with opponents, as well as capture towers , to gain advantage. Funny timekiller!)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great fast-paced tactical action! The five unique classes and random maps keep every match fresh and exciting. Love the strategic push for turret control. A fantastic, competitive top-down shooter!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →the game's graphics were strange, and I didn't like the game's storyline. Overall, it was an amateur game.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →DEPLOYMENT strikes a perfect balance between deep strategic planning and frantic, real-time execution. Managing my units and resources while under pressure is a thrilling challenge. Highly recommend for fans of the genre! I'm really impressed with the unit diversity and counter-system in DEPLOYMENT. It forces you to think on your feet and adapt your strategy, rather than just spamming one powerful unit. The learning curve is fair but rewarding.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Players enter a world of high technology and brutal combat, where each match is unique thanks to randomly generated levels. The goal of the game is to capture and defend systems, giving you a strategic advantage on the battlefield. You can also gain experience and upgrade your classes, which directly impacts your combat performance.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Deployment is a competitive top-down shooter. Infosoldiers made of pure information are fighting an endless war. Choose your fighter from five different classes and fight online to control randomly generated battlefields.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →it's hardly worth playing without real players. You can have your fun in just 20 minutes then never pick it up again
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →What a scam, lol. So I bought this game in 2022 and got it for 0.50€ (-95%, original price: 10€) How the fcuk is it 39.99€ now?! It has aged, no playerbase and is not even that good. How do you justify a raise of 300%?! do NOT buy.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →que jogo cobra, muito mau.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I really love this game. It needs a a little approvement: - needs a "play again" button after a match, also for lobby games. - inviting in lobby works as long as you quitted the last game, otherwise its bugged and you need to restart the game. - when playing TDM it appears, that you disconnect from the servers, your game turns into controller interface and your options going wild. "You are offline. Multiplayer experience is restriced".
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Amazing game, i just wish i could find lobbys. But other than that i really like the overall idea and how it is used. Would recommend the bots are also fun.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Kill times are a bit too short, like 2 seconds or less. Basically a quick endless loop of running around capturing control points while killing whomever lacks spawn protection and dying to those who have it.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →i guess its a cool twin stick shooter but........ HOOOOONK MI MI MI MI
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Bought it on sale on a whim. The movement is tight and AI bots put up a decent fight. Great time-killer for quick sessions.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great competitive top-down shooter. Choose your class, capture turrets, and dominate the arena. Highly addictive!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A wonderfully crafted indie experience. No rush, no stress, just pure atmospheric exploration. Absolutely worth it.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It’s a fairly simple, yet at the same time, exciting game. I hope there will be more content in future updates; I’m really looking forward to it.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →is a fun strategy game you deploy units and fight enemies levels are hard but fair graphics are nice gameplay is smooth fun to play
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Nothing too complicated here. Jump into a match, shoot some stuff, mess around with friends, and that's it. The visuals are nice too, simple but kinda stylish.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Наконец-то топ-даун шутер, где нужно не только метко стрелять, но и думать! Очень увлекающий тактический и приключенческий экшен где присутствует неплохая графика.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fast, chaotic, and surprisingly fun. The classes feel unique, and every match plays out differently. Great for quick sessions!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Довольно бодрая игра, в которой можно быстро втянуться. Понравился сам темп матчей — особо расслабиться не дают, постоянно нужно следить за происходящим и быстро реагировать. Иногда бывают моменты, когда всё идёт наперекосяк, но именно это и добавляет веселья. За свои деньги вполне нормальный вариант, чтобы периодически заходить и играть несколько каток.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Deployment is a brilliant mix of fast-paced action and clever strategy. Addictive, challenging, and endlessly replayable. Highly recommend!
