Not a bad start!

The skybox needs better quality as you can clearly see the edges and it's rather pixelated which ruins the effect a bit.

I would say the controls could be improved somewhat..... Either make the mouse more sensitive or use keys to move the ship.... being able to change your speed would be good as it was quite slow i felt.

also there's no real way of knowing if you're actually damaging an enemy ship until it actually explodes.

Good luck with continuing the development!

so I did...

when you shoot at an object (asteroid or this ball-ring things) your projectile is behind this objects (wrong z-order)...

The atmosphere is cool! Music is good.
Won't you improve the quality of textures?
By the way, can common Spanish folks read Portugese?
