Deployment is a dynamic competitive top-down shooter where infosoldiers (units of pure data) battle for control over the digital systems that run the world. Deploy troops from five unique classes, fight on randomly generated maps, capture system turrets, and defeat your enemies.
Story / Setting
After the Last War, civilization is on the brink of collapse — but computers still manage the key systems (energy, transport, factories). Whoever controls these systems controls the world. In this digital war, governments and megacorporations send infosoldiers into battle to seize the Etherweb.

Choose one of five classes: Gunner, Pyro, Sniper, Cyclops, Rocketeer — each with unique skills and playstyle.
Engage in intense 5v5 or free-for-all battles on randomly generated arenas.
Capture and defend system turrets to gain tactical advantages.
Earn experience, upgrade your class, and unlock new abilities.
