I’m going to deploy my Java game to show it to my friends and whatnot, but I’m having trouble deciding between Java Web Start and applets.
Under what conditions is one preferable over another and what advantages/disadvantages are there?

If your game is going to consume a lot of cpu and memory resources I recommend deploying it as Java Web Start since applets run slower.
If you have some java-javascript interaction you’d better use applets
