Color coded based on finished/unfinished.
I can vouch for all of the above. Single is in production (but then again, so is Being a DIK).
Melody's ending rubbed me the wrong way simply because of the somewhat absurd requirements you need to meet to get the good ending.
Haven't finished either one (as in, not up to date with current version) but they should both qualify.
Edit: accidentally posted.
Love of Magic has kind of a weird start (large part of book 1) but it's definitely a top 5 for me in terms of quality. Morningstar: Book of the Fallen from the same creator is good so far, like a more polished Love of Magic.
Randeltales is a gem that may or may not fit your list. I'm not up to date but I loved that game.
Elvensang. I've only played the first part of the game but was absolutely stunned by the storytelling. I'm waiting for full release on it because I don't want to spoil it.
Tribulations of a Mage is solid. So far all romance options are optional. More focus on MCs tale rather than a love interest.
The Swordbearer. More focused on MCs journey but one of my all-time favorites.
Rewind. A really odd one that is built around you dying. First time around I didn't understand that dying was a base mechanic and gave up on it quite soon, but after giving it another chance I love it. I hope the creator will provide a better option than using Ctrl to advance parts of the story you already played through though. Limited love interest and unbalanced game mechanics, but definitely something to try out (with dying).
