Well, I've been patiently waiting for new Charlotte content since the first release, and unfortunately I think the dev was waiting to save the best for last. I don't particularly care for Ayane much for some reason. Maybe it's her personality? I'm not sure. In my opinion she is fairly attractive, but Charlotte is just take your breath away beautiful.
Oh well. I certainly hope the best for Chainzero. In the scheme of life, a visual novel is about priority number 100, so I get it.
If this game ends up being abandoned, Connected will be the second best game here that ended up abandoned, after "Our Fate".

well, we have discussed that real problem here is lack of respect for his supporters (and funny irony in the game/dev names,) and ofc about having no problems with taking free money (aka beggars cant be choosers, in the very best devs tradition). we shall see how the story goes on, for now it does not look so promising.
yet, fingers crossed for the best
p.s.
and if this gone abandoned road at this moment, it hardly can be called a "game", its only introduction, and there are hundreds of similar, a bit more, or a bit less promising&quality "introductions"...comparing it with "Our fate", which has many episodes and a ton of content..damn, i would love to smoke, or take the shit, youre using there

Well, I am one of the supporters, as you can see. I've supported him since soon after the first release. I am not going to cancel my support just yet, since Chainzero is likely going through some tough times. I'll give him a little more time to at least offer some sort of explanation. If it is some tragedy in his family, which I certainly hope is not the case, getting on Patreon with an update is probably not his top priority.
There are many games I love that are much longer, with more in depth stories than Connected of course (LoML, WTHI, BM, SG, HH, CoBD, DF, etc) but if I am just talking about games that were abandoned, I put this as the one I am second most unhappy about, after Our Fate.
What abandoned games were you more upset about? Since you question my preferences, or as you put it "love to smoke, or take the shit, youre using there" ?

Another abandoned game that had promise and wasn't much more than an introduction would be Bad Teacher. If you haven't tried it I suggest checking it out. Also Queen's Curse, IIRC was rather good and abandoned as well.
I hope that CZ will return to us and we will get more of this game. If not then I will end my support before December 1st.

This is ot, and it has been pointed out for you comparing as equal imo two incomparable games (regarding developing state/content)...yet, if you say "potential, and personal preferences", that is a completely different thing than saying "this is the second best game being abandoned i know of".
As for OT/abandoned games, from the top of my head -famous LaS, Milky city..etc with a fair share of content, or CoP (chains of pleasure), with not much content, yet promising, and not just introduction nevertheless...theer are many more, particularly those being abandoned after one two episodes only, sadly.

But it has to be in his top 10 atleast right? And it's been well over a month. So unless something happened to him that makes him physically unable to do so, which i really hope is not the case. I can't find any other reason for keeping him off from writing a few words which leads me to believe that he's probably got something to hide or be ashamed of.

Hopefully he is doing fine, but this may be a case of being burnt out too. He was revamping the game to make it better, but that can be a trap. It can get really frustrating when you remake content that you have already done, and can't quite get it right. You get tired of it after a while.
The game already had very slow updates in the first place, so I think that burnout is a very plausible reason for him disappearing.
EDIT: Looking at his last patreon posts, I think that is actually the most likely reason. Look at what I bolded in the last quote.
So yeah, I think this is likely abandoned, at least for now.

Family health is also a big possibility

Is this game abandoned or is something wrong with the dev, haven't heard from him for a while now ?

I do read them, what I wanted to know was why could not he upload the revamped update that he was supposed to deliver to the people on October 7th (if I heard right), I'm sure he has completed testing and finalized everything by then, but he still didnot delivered on time and has not yet. If he had uploaded the update then and took 2 months off, people would not even care about it cuz' you can say he delivered but failing to do so and with not much info out there regarding the game or himself has had me thinking about what's really going on ?
Wait, let me get this straight... You’re “sure he has completed testing and finalized everything by then” but you don’t know what is going on? If you have read all of the posts and are so “in the know” about what is going on then maybe you can tell us how his mom is doing? Does she have breast cancer? Has it metastasized? Perhaps you can let us all know whether CZ is coping with all the shit going on in his life? Or maybe you shouldn’t be so “sure” about what someone could have been doing and understand that a porn game, no matter how good it is, isn’t as important as the health and well-being of CZ or his mom.

Perfect answer! Sometimes people really need to set their priorities right and have some empathy.
Just so tired of people thinking with their dicks and not their brains. I love this game, one of the first if not the first that I supported on Patreon. Definitely the only one I supported via the "annual" option when he enabled it, even though it had already been awhile since we'd seen an update. I'd be sad if CZ abandoned this game, disappointed even, but fuck all of that when it comes to the health and well-being of actual human beings. CZ was experiencing some self-doubt about the direction of the game but when he let us know about his mom that became all that should matter for him right now. I've lost people to cancer, had people I love suffer through breast cancer, and if CZ is too busy to develop a porn game for the fapping pirates on this site I understand.

It all is perfectly understandable, ofc developing porn game isnt priority, there are far more important things, particularly if/when it comes to health/life issues. Yet, even so, he could/should take just 30s of his (hard) life to post on patreon without much explanation - "Im in deep sheet health related, Im not gonna be able to work on the game for a time being - feel free to pledge me or not (I need money badly though)...Im gonna pause/not pause pledges..fuck you all".
And I'm not going to disagree with you about the need for communication. However, there are a lot of developers who fall down on that point, CZ isn't alone in being terrible about it. At least he has a valid reason unlike others. That said if people support him on Patreon and are unhappy with the level of communication or activity they should cancel their support and move on. No one is forcing them to continue their support.
