My last comment was on the short side, but this game deserves more detailed feedback.
What I like about the game:
I like that the women have their own agenda and that their body proportions are realistic. The renders and animations are great and the story you tell is engaging. I'd suggest you do not add additional sectors, the three existing ones already offer lots of story hooks and I prefer three fully fleshed out sectors over a dozen half empty ones. Having spend way too much time in Elite the trading minigame wasn't difficult or difficult to understand (I would have liked more complexity but that would have killed the mini part of minigame).
Things that bug me:
The game is a harem space opera and space operas have a relaxed relationship with reality. That said, please, pretty please with sugar, avoid techno babble. There were thankfully none in free roam but one or two cases in the prologue. Thing is you and everyone else doesn't know why/how the ship flies because with current physics/technology it's plain impossible. Only current way to create a gravitational force of 1 g (and the ship has obviously artificial gravity of that order of magnitude) is having roughly the same mass as earth. On the contrary polarity in science is a

but none of these polarities help with the propulsion of a ship. Er, electrical polarity is everywhere you have an electrical current, but why a change of the direction of the current creates an engineering miracle is beyond me. Maybe choose the same same approach as with the floor looking like wood. Wood burns rather easily and fire on a space ship has a tendency to turn the ship in a large coffin. Yet no one of the crew cares about it, so it's either a fireproof look-alike or the ship has other unmentioned features to prevent fires.
To clarify, the talk about Sam didn't come off as techno babble because you can take state of the art robotics and AI research, extrapolate it 20/50/100 years into the future and something like Sam looks entirely believeable.
Also there's a lot of time when no one is on the bridge. Space is a dangerous place and while it isn't actively trying to kill you it won't pass up the opportunity should you give it the chance (not my words, paraphrased from

). Admittedly it can be handwaved away with a competent ship AI, flying established trade lines and an alert calling personnel to the bridge if need be but maybe consider Tanya/Alice (pilot/sensor specialist) spend more time on the bridge instead of staying alone in their room.
Conclusion:
The game feels as if you have a well thought out plan. This is meant as constructive criticism, take what's helpful and ignore the rest.
One last typo:
Talk with Tiffany after Tiffany-Marvin meeting, Tiffany:
I only implied right, I did state outright, it should be alright?
"I didn't state outright" makes more sense to me.
