At first I was playing the originally Japanese, translated KNs such as Narcissu and Red Shift. Another of those was my first, I'm not totally sure which one... Maybe Red Shift. And my first VN was a fan-made one. The first that I played at all was probably Tales of Lemma 1, but I died and since you can't save in that game (I think?) I got kind of frustrated at the fact that I would have to play it all again, and so I didn't play ToL1 through in a long time. So ToL was the first that I played at all, but I think the first one that I actually played through was Alessio's Go, Magical Boy!. I liked it, so I kept on playing OEL VNs: Some of my other first VNs were Abigail, O3 and My Teacher, I think.

I don't quite remember my first vn. It might've been a fan game, or one of the insani translated games. But I do remember which game was my first commercial one, Crescendo. It certainly wasn't a bad place to start.

After playing a few of the various simdate type games, the first real VN I played was Tales of Lemma 1. It inspired me to get in to the genre, picking up a number of the commercial games (Including Kana, Crescendo, Heart de Roomate, and Private Nurse). After that, I wrote Ren'Py in about a week, proceeded to forget about it for a few months, picked it up again... and the rest is history.

TOL 1, if it hadn't been for the "Ren'Ai" article at wikipedia which I came upon by chance one night at the end of 2006, (probably when I was looking for games with strong romantic elements in them , after realising that was the main reason why I enjoyed playing eg BG2 or various NWN modules). Without that article I might never have found out about Visual Novels (or in particular the OELVN scene - even if I did hear about commerical VN's, I probably wouldn't have bought one without knowing what it was like to 'play' them)... I think the wikipedia article mentioned TOL 1 and NaNoRenO 2005 (probably someone from this community wrote it ).
Unfortunately that article seems to have been merged into "Dating Sim" now, and the section on the OELVN scene has been removed .

Fatal Relations and May Club also, the games that monele mentioned (and all the other ones you could download with the voices ripped) I also played tales of lemma 1 about a year before I decided to use ren'py
How do you make your games? I see. Thank you for the prompt replies, but it is my considered opinion that you're doing it wrong inefficiently because I am a perfushenal professional. Do it my way this way and we can all ascend VN Nirvana together while allowing me to stroke my ego you will improve much faster. Also, please don't forget to thank me for this constructive critique or I will cry and bore you to death respond appropriately with a tl;dr rant discourse of epic adequately lengthy proportions. - Sarcasm Veiled in Euphemism: Secrets of Forum Civility by lordcloudx (Coming soon to an online ebook near you.)

The actual first VN I played was Three Sisters' Story. Which is an excellent game and all, but utterly pales next to the next one I played, Season of the Sakura, which showed me how involving and romantic these games can be
I released 3 VNs, many moons ago: Elven Relations (IntRenAiMo 2007), When I Rule The World (NaNoRenO 2005), and Cloud Fairy (the Cute Light & Fluffy Project, 2009).
More recently I designed the board game Steam Works (published in 2015), available from a local gaming store near you!
