Joel Hietala, better known as Jole, is a Finnish indie game developer, graphic designer and composer. He has been featured in the Finnish media for both game development[1] and composing.[2] He designs all of his teaser ads himself, both static[3] and videos.[4] He also created the official mobile application for Europe's largest Christian youth event, Maata Näkyvissä Festival by himself.[5]
His first release was Delirium, a horror maze game built around the idea of finding a way out of the massive maze. The game was released for free for iPhone[6] on April 19, 2013 and for Android[7] on June 21, 2013.
On October 1, 2013, Jole released Delirium 2 for both iOS and Android. Delirium 2 was a free-to-play sequel for his first game.
Eight days later, on October 9, he released ad-supported Leveret, a simple puzzle game, for iOS.[8]
