Petri Purho (born 1983 in Kouvola, Finland[1]) is a Finnish game developer and a cofounder of the game studio Nolla Games.[2] He has previously also worked at Finnish independent video game developer studio Frozenbyte.[3] He is best-known for the roguelite Noita and the puzzler Crayon Physics Deluxe, which won the Seumas McNally Grand Prize at the Independent Games Festival in 2008.
Purho initially made a name for himself as a rapid game prototyper. Almost all of his early games were created within one week as a massive prototyping project. Most common element of these prototypes are various bonuses for successful combos and/or chain reactions. These games were mainly created using open-source technologies.
