Peter Olotka is a game designer who has worked primarily on board games.

In 1972, Peter Olotka, Jack Kittredge, Bill Eberle, and Bill Norton came together as the game design cooperative Future Pastimes. Seeking to publish their board game Cosmic Encounter, they met Ned Horn, who offered to invest in the game; several weeks later, Olotka, Kittredge, Eberle, and Horn created a new company, Eon Products, and Cosmic Encounter went to press in 1977. Eberle, Kittredge, and Olotka designed Star Trek: The Enterprise Encounter (1985), a board game that mixes racing and set collection, for West End Games.

Olotka released Cosmic Encounter Online in 2003, a high-tech Flash version of Eon's original game.
