What's the cut-off for abandoned? There's plenty of games updated once or twice per year that don't have said tag.
No activity from the dev on here or there main site for 90 days or no game update in 18 months.

This dev last activity was Feb. 6 more than 90 days ago.

Comment by the dev in Patreon just yesterday:

I haven't worked much on it lately to be frank because I have been way too tired. But most of the editing for the next scene and update is done and I have also written some content for the next update since I had a very hard time motivating myself to keep editing due to lack of time and energy and not enjoying it too much especially when dead tired. I've not really checked on any of my social media and I'm sorry for that, else I would have replied to this sooner. If it's about any patronage, I encourage you to cancel if you need the money for something else, and I will refund anyone that asks for it for the past few months. I'm doing fine financially. When I get home tonight I will work some more on it. I hope to have it in a state I find acceptable soon.
Hopefully next update comes out soon-ish.

So, I understand the creator is feeling burnt out? I just played through v0.10.0 for the first time and enjoyed it quite a bit.
In light of the circumstances I think you might be making your writing a bit too difficult on yourself. I can feel the intensity of your desire to depict what you envision exactly as you imagine it, but that level of detail is often unnecessary. Your writing style is genuinely refreshing; but as a gentle reminder, I think most of us are ultimately here for the character interactions and smut.

As an example, having essentially multiple pages of text dedicated to the minutia of cooking is not useful in building the story and seems needlessly burdensome on you the author. Another might be the level of detail that went into describing how the brother contacted training specialists, their conversations, the scheduling, etc. (this kills the flow and also my boner). Unless you believe those things will play some key role later on it's fine to handwave and make it as brief as possible.

As far as how to progress, I suggest starting by first establishing what ending scenario/scenarios you want to see, then do a rough outline of how you want to get there. What kind of kinky stuff do really want to depict, the kind that made you want to write in the first place, what conflicts, etc.. If you have an end in mind you can just plug and play those things, then the only challenge is filling in the blanks in between the events so that they reasonably flow. As a reader I could care less how that happens, I just want the juice.
Sorry, I'm not sure if any of this rambling has been useful at all. To close, just want to say I love your work and hope you keep at it. In spite of any misgivings you freaking nail the intimacy scenes and general eroticism, it's fantastic.

TL;DR: Create a rough outline, set small goals, and don't lose sight of the finish line.

Author is a king, has a full life going on. Works on this cool story sometimes and shares it with us. There's no schedule or anything. All we have to do is wait and hope we get an update.

the romance slow billed is better as it is refreshing to see a story in it. with a lot of games at the moment the story is taking a back seat.

This is an uncharacterisic idle from the dev. Last year they appeared in February like they did this year, then went afk until august where they pushed through last update. It's been august this year, almost not september either with no signs of life.

That said the last sign of life i've seen from them was in April where they said they're burned out from 70 hour work weeks.

Any recommendations of other HTML games like this for someone who got into the story just to find out it wasn't being updated anymore?

In the sense of an older brother that slowly becomes intimate with his sibling? That I don't think there is.

A good text based HTML game? That is possible but maybe the one I like you hate xD. From the top of head Secretary
