The graphics of the game have received widespread praise for their high quality, attention to detail, and impressive performance, particularly in 4K resolution using the Unreal Engine. However, some users have noted issues with the graphics settings interface, which can be cumbersome for those wanting to lower their settings. Overall, while the visuals are considered a strong point, the gameplay experience is seen as lacking depth and engagement.
- “With a space flair and great graphics for alpha, this game has major potential.”
- “Let me tell you something about this game: it is beautiful. The graphics are insane, and the attention to detail is remarkable. This game deserves a player base because, on graphics alone, it is incredible.”
- “The technical side of things was passable; for an alpha, there's still a reasonable array of graphics tweaks, and the game looks reasonable enough in 4K thanks to the reliable Unreal Engine.”
- “I can't actually select graphics options; I have to cycle through them in a preset order. Right-click does not cycle to the previous setting, forcing you to go to higher settings before you can select lower ones.”
- “While this works fine for people who want to turn up the graphics, those who want to lower them are going to stutter through the buttons as the graphics keep improving. If you want to lower the settings, chances are you're already getting a choppy experience.”

Gameplay reviews highlight a mix of unique mechanics and significant issues. While some players appreciate the innovative weight mechanic and the artistic design, many criticize the clunky controls and lack of engaging content, feeling that the game currently lacks direction and multiplayer support. Suggestions for improvement include smoother controls, better animations, and the addition of single-player modes to enhance the overall experience.
- “The weight mechanic in a game style like this seems unique to me, as I have never seen it used.”
- “As far as the gameplay itself goes, I'm a huge fan.”
- “This is looking like it could be really fun; Brembo has good game mechanics with an interesting economy system. The more players that play Brembo and contribute to the market, the more fun it will be.”
- “Very rough flight mechanics with more of a drift than floating; I can't explain it, it just didn't feel like my ship was floating in space. It felt more like it was being pulled.”
- “The controls feel clunky; the way the character moves feels realistic, but too realistic. It's supposed to be smooth, not like I'm moving like a rock in space. I entered into a server and all I did was explore the ship. I don't see any point to this game other than its artistic view.”
- “There are no other mechanics other than purchasing a gun you cannot use.”

The game's story is criticized for being underdeveloped, with a prologue that is engaging but too brief, leading into a confusing transition from ground combat to space battles without adequate introduction. Players express frustration over the lack of in-game backstory and the challenging mechanics that detract from the narrative experience, making it difficult to stay immersed in the storyline. Overall, the storytelling feels disjointed and fails to provide a satisfying context for the gameplay.
- “Who doesn't love a good sci-fi story-driven FPS?”
- “What little parts of the game I could experience, the menu and the intro cinematic for the first part of the story, I can review:”
- “The storyline prologue is well done, in my opinion, but much too short.”
- “First few missions are ground fighting, then you immediately get put into space combat with zero intro, terrible ship controls, and within literally less than 5 seconds, you have to avoid missiles and an incoming squadron that doesn't miss.”
- “The prologue mission is basically the zombie map with a few NPCs telling you how terrible you are, while you pick up the rear the entire first mission, getting one-shotted through the smallest cracks between objects in the game level by the AI that sees all things at all times.”

Additionally, the overall audio experience, including voice acting and sound ambiance, was criticized for detracting from gameplay immersion. Improvements in music and sound design are suggested to enhance the overall quality of the game.
- “The background music matched what I was expecting, enhancing the overall atmosphere of the game.”
- “The music and sound ambiance contribute significantly to the immersive experience.”
- “Nope, there are so many better space games out there. This looks like an okay idea, but the music is cheesy and the voice acting is poor. I can't sign up.”
- “Not sandbox. I couldn't get that far because the bad voice acting and music put me off, along with too many cut scenes.”
- “The background music matched what I was expecting, but the interface felt like it was designed by someone who took a couple of electives in UI/UX during their undergrad years.”

The game's optimization has received criticism for unnecessarily lengthy animations when navigating menus, which can be skipped but feel awkward. Additionally, players with mid-range hardware, such as the 1060 video card, report needing to lower all video settings to achieve stable performance at 60 fps.
- “The menu runs smoothly, but the long animation to switch to another part of the room feels unnecessary. It's skippable by clicking and dragging, which I discovered by accident, but it's still an odd choice.”
- “Poorly optimized; I had to reduce video settings to low across the board to achieve a stable 60 fps on my 1060 video card.”
- “The game suffers from severe optimization issues, making it nearly unplayable on mid-range hardware.”
