The graphics of "A Grande Bagunça Espacial" are widely criticized for their low-budget, inconsistent, and chaotic aesthetic, featuring a mix of various art styles that many find overly obnoxious and distracting. While some appreciate the colorful, sprite-based visuals as fitting for the game's comedic tone, the overall consensus leans towards disappointment, with many reviewers describing the graphics as terrible and reminiscent of outdated designs. Despite a few positive remarks about unique elements, the general sentiment is that the visuals detract significantly from the gameplay experience.
- “Visually, A Grande Bagunça Espacial adopts a colorful, sprite-based aesthetic that fits its comedic tone.”
- “It's a mash-up of a bunch of different art styles: hand-drawn, claymation, PNG images; you name it, the game likely has it.”
- “I'll just say it's good, has a really good art style and what it does is weird, yet funny, but still quite amazing.”
- “It would be charitable to describe the graphics as being designed by a brain-damaged chimp, but said chimp would probably still have designed a better game than the presumably non-brain-damaged human responsible for the gameplay... if you can call it that.”
- “The graphics are hideous -- and I honestly don't care that much about graphics in games, usually -- and incredibly inconsistent.”
- “The graphics are absolutely terrible, the animations and assets used are horrendous and feel like an early 2000's attempt at 3D graphics.”

The gameplay is characterized by classic side-scrolling shooter mechanics that emphasize constant movement and reflex-based combat, but it suffers from a lack of depth and polish, leading to a janky and often frustrating experience. While some players appreciate the bizarre characters and humor, many find the overall execution and controls to be poor, resulting in a tedious and unsatisfying gameplay experience. Despite its length and potential for fun, the game is marred by bugs and simplistic mechanics that fail to engage players fully.
- “Gameplay is built around classic side-scrolling shooter fundamentals, emphasizing constant movement, enemy waves, and reflex-based combat.”
- “Multiple weapon types are available, and while the shooting mechanics remain straightforward, switching between characters and tools can meaningfully change how stages are approached.”
- “The gameplay is very fun, as to be noted, and it does have many cool gameplay elements that were all well executed.”
- “It's undone by a monumentally stupid gameplay mechanic and very sloppy execution.”
- “So I'm not big on these types of games, but I'm always down to try something I'm usually not a fan of, and I've enjoyed some games that the genre has to offer, but sadly the gameplay is pretty rough.”
- “The gameplay is bad and the graphics too.”

Overall, the narrative is a mix of entertaining absurdity and frustrating ambiguity, appealing to those who enjoy quirky storytelling but leaving others dissatisfied.
- “Wish this wasn't a side-scrolling shoot 'em up just because I find them kind of boring, and this one doesn't do anything gameplay-wise that hasn't been around since the 80s, but oh man, the story, humor, atmosphere, and sheer absurdity of this is on the same level, if not crazier than Katamari or Suda51.”
- “Moral of the story: you never know what life has in store for you, and if I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today.”
- “The story is deliberately over-the-top and nonsensical, revolving around an eccentric villain known as the brain monster from space, whose schemes range from criminal enterprises to political ambitions, all in pursuit of galactic recognition and paternal approval.”
- “The big space mess is not worth the money... it's a game without a proper storyline.”
- “It's a story involving characters that can be somewhat funny to a few people, but most will not get it, and that is a huge fault in my opinion.”
