Originally Josh’s blog, now the landing page for Sidereal Gaming.

Josh Ballagh

Lead Designer, Founder

Hi everyone! I’m a Louisiana boy and tech consultant/data engineer. My academic interests include AI, history, and public policy. My favorite games across all mediums/genres include Root, Starfinder, and Outer Wilds. When I’m not thinking about games and game design (which is rare), you can usually find me exploring nature, cooking, or hanging out with my cat.

Check out some of my old blogs from my days with Tulane University Live Action Gaming!

Coco Lincoln

Illustrator, Art Lead

Hello! I’m Coco Lincoln – professional nuisance and amateur artist, writer, and academic. I grew up in New Orleans and majored in Medieval and Early Modern studies at Tulane University, which gave me an outlet for my love of all things weird, old, and historical. While I consider myself an artist for hire, I’ve also made it my goal to write a few of my own books and illustrate them myself. Working on Coalition has been a cool and fun experience for me, as game design has pushed me to think in terms of both functionality and aesthetic!
