The gameplay in Space Ops features solid mechanics and a variety of tactical options, with fast-paced action and engaging weapon upgrades that enhance the competitive experience. However, some players find the initial disorientation and lack of multiplayer interaction detract from the overall enjoyment, despite a well-structured training level. Customization options are appreciated, but the game's accessibility and friendliness could be improved.
- “I'm very picky about VR shooters, and the aiming and game mechanics here are good.”
- “Great fast action with some nice tactical variety, good idea of competitive gameplay that motivates you to do things better and faster, nice weapons with two different modes each and constant upgrades with each level receiving new stuff.”
- “The core mechanic of this game is really fun - and why wouldn’t it be?”
- “While the training level got me familiar with the game mechanics, it seems to be largely based on the Farhome training level.”
- “Where it all sadly falls is when it comes to gameplay and feeling.”
- “Oh yeah... ghost record of another player's gameplay; you most likely won't find other players to play with, so you'll have to wait for 60 seconds and then play a one vs one against a ghost record a la Mario Kart.”

The graphics in the game are generally praised for their originality and visual appeal, with many users highlighting the impressive artwork and solid overall presentation. However, some players noted that certain elements, such as enemy designs, feel recycled from previous titles by the same developer, which detracts from the game's uniqueness. Overall, the visuals contribute positively to the gameplay experience, despite some minor criticisms regarding handling and the utility of specific graphical features.
- “Amazing graphics - check”
- “Overall graphical presentation is solid, and the levels generally have a wide-open, halo-like feel to them.”
- “Nice visuals, lots of weapons and enemies, player progression.”
- “Graphics are okay, handling is a bit hard at times.”
- “Overall graphical presentation is solid, and the levels generally have a wide-open, Halo-like feel to them, though there is some corridor-type play.”
- “Some graphics and enemies seem to be recycled from a prior game by this developer (Farhome), so any remaining Farhome fans may notice the game does not feel entirely original.”

The game's story is largely absent, with players noting that it focuses more on multiplayer gameplay rather than narrative depth. The lack of a compelling storyline or context for the combat leaves players feeling disconnected, as the gameplay primarily revolves around repetitive horde missions without meaningful story elements.
- “The game is geared more towards multiplayer (up to 2 vs 2) over what seems to be 2 large levels (with both day and night variants), so anybody looking for a story will need to look elsewhere.”
- “Some kind of direct, competitive interaction against the human player/bot is needed here (or give a story element as to why you are fighting against the bugs).”
- “What story?”

grinding

Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious and unenjoyable, especially when playing solo, as it transforms leveling up into a chore rather than an engaging experience. The tutorial is criticized for being slow and uninteresting, contributing to the overall sense of monotony in the game's combat and progression.
- “The amount of grinding you will have to do to level up your character and weapons would be more fun with a human player, but when it is just you, it eventually becomes a chore.”
- “Your first introduction to the game is a tutorial that treats you like an idiot, is tedious and slow, and takes place in a boring environment. You have nothing to look at while waiting for the unimaginative instructions to end.”
