Deflector is a non-linear action roguelite with a combat system based on deflecting projectiles and a unique skill combination system.

Deflector is a high-octane roguelite where you can turn the tide of the bullet hell against your enemies. Become a part of the experiment to eradicate deadly viruses in the most stylish way possible.

Inhabiting Deflector’s deadly sci-fi world are strange but powerful ‘Specimens’, playable characters that can be enhanced through technology using collected DNA strains. Each Specimen offers a unique gameplay experience, with DNA that can be evolved and tuned to specific loadouts to fit different play styles, an essential part of Deflector’s constantly changing, non-linear experience. Deflector will land fully armed with a free-form upgrade system to create an incredible number of powerful weapon combinations. Wreak havoc with explosive clones, shake enemies to the core with a vast ground rupture or multiply deflected projectiles back at your enemies - all to the beat of Deflector’s blood-pumping heavy metal soundtrack.

With up to seven different playable characters, exciting and frenetic action, and an endless amount of skill combinations and strategies, Arrowfist Games is looking to ensure that their first major project is infinitely replayable.

Evolve as a player, because the fringes will put your skills to the test with some MASSIVE challenges.


Developer Arrowfist Games announced that Deflector is now available on Steam Early Access for $14.99.

“In Early Access, the game will have four playable characters with unique playstyles. Because all our core features are already in place, players will be able to freely explore three different worlds and develop their characters in the process. The final laiunch version will include more worlds, characters, skills, missions, and modes.”

Early adopters can enjoy a 10% discount until February 2nd. Also available is Deflector: Specimen Zero, a free thirty-minute experience that offers a small taste of Deflector’s chaotic world.

Key Features:

  • Enter the eye of the bullet storm and experience explosive combat in a tsunami of missiles, lasers and more!
  • Flip the switch and deflect enemy attacks right back at them using the innovative deflection mechanic
  • Combine upgrades and unlock powerful game-altering abilities and combos with Deflector’s free-form upgrade system
  • Complete the Deflector: Specimen Zero prologue to unlock an exclusive skin for use in the full game
  • Enjoy the heavy metal soundtrack, which sets the tone for the chaotic nature of this microcosmic world

Deflector is coming to PC (Steam) in 2022.
