Coup Ahoo
You're finally fed up with your fleet and their incompetence. Take down all 13 of them one by one and claim your spot at the top. Along the way, you'll discover precious cargo dice that represent your ship's vitality and firepower. You may also encounter friendly merchants, carpenters, and potential crew members eager to join and assist you on your journey.
The game is played entirely with a mouse (or touch). You can mute the game by pressing M.
Your ship's cargo consists of dice, and their total pip values represent your ship's total HP. These dice also influence the number of damage dice you roll in combat. Be careful not to let your cargo's total value reach the dreaded number, as even rolling that in combat can have unfavorable consequences.
The game was originally created for js13k 2024 game jam where the goal is to always create a game in JavaScript and make it fit completely in 13 kilobytes or less. The theme this year was triskaidekaphobia which is the fear of number 13. The jam lasted for a month and I hit the size limit after the first week so I pretty much spent the remaining three weeks creating this "enhanced edition" adding more polish and content without the need to watch out for the scope anymore.

if you restart a game during a battle and you use autoplay, the screen shakes like if you still in battle
*you're
this is a great game. Really fun.
oof
how do you beat the scrambled guys minigame?
you have to make 3, 3 letter words
no offense, but you should really get better music for this
The music is amazing.Sure there is only1 track it is perfect.
Anttihavikko:
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make a patch 1.4 I've been waiting for one for TWELVE days!
Really unique game i liked it i may do a big series depends on the views
The pictures on the right are outdated
This is way too op this should be changed
get steadfast
Why does the cargo go past the ship on the left???
Bombardier splash damage from divine beings can kill you if you have too less cargo to finish the string so it just traps you in, you can't hit them, but it doesn't end the minigame
I think Mimic actually quadruples the effect of a trinket. I had 1 legacy, starting harpoon, and got slight and glow from the trinket collector. I got Frarp from an earlier amphibian game ship and have a totally normal crew at ship "9"
Also, if "Grow" would +1 a cargo piece that's value 1, Carp's repair ability would still trigger. Is this even intentional???
hehe, one time I left the page open and the music playing in the background and I switched tabs right after getting hit, and when i came back the music was all sped up lol
I got softlocked by uncollector.
Few people have posted this same issue now but sadly I haven't been able to reproduce it myself to fix it. If it happens again, (and you're not playing on mobile) could you please grab a pic of the browser console (F12 opens it in most browsers) so I could track what is causing the error there.
Is it intentional for legacy to duplicate your starting trinket?
btw enemy spy can rig pearls (sorry I don't have a picture). Is that supposed to be in the game?
It seems like you got a green pearl while you had the switch cargo tab open. This is a bug, but it doesn't affect gameplay.

sure
Honestly, I think Jake Jackson would actually freak if he saw your way of portraying Jake from Spacefarer Games
Upgrading Fravi does nothing since you can't get more than 2 extra directions while navigating which I think is unfair
Please nerf intimidation a bit. Having to rely on a singular boon in order to do anything sucks
Well I already did nerf it on the last patch. That pirate is level 16, so the chance would have been 160% before...
well you think THAT is already op?\
look at this:
idk, having an entire ability dedicated to nerfing it seems more than enough
just tinker, lol
I found a bug. I got pretty far during eternity. I have over 36 pages of cargo. When i rolled to fire on infinite fleet 30, the game just stood still. Not quite frozen, but no option to shoot or do anything.
Also, besides that, can you add some kind of rebirth modifier? After getting an absurd amount of boons, op crew, and too much cargo(the game shrieked a lot), it's not possible to lose. This makes something like legacy useless.
Restart is in the esc menu, it will also trigger legacy.
Hmm, weird, do the enemy crew member hats still not work correctly?
When a pirate ship has a Navigator and you decline, the crow's nest appears but the Navigator doesn't go in there. (sorry for no picture, I'll add it if I see it.)
can anyone send me a picture of your character as the frog, with the mark, the cross, pentagram and the king hat?
I think there are multiple (4+) different outcomes of those combinations depending on the order you get them.
the words dont fit the screen
why is their boat so wide?
why 19%?
Yea I nerfed his scaling so it's not flat 10% per level but less and less every level past the first.
I can't see the loot
Skeletonize the skeleton
so free fr
*horrific scraping noises*
Shouldn't it be unlucky 13???
It's a product of a Boomer so probably not?
Exactly, it only triggers for the initial damage amount.
I found a bug. If you dequip starting Pentagram and change to a different boon, your character is still red
Also, what does leech even do?
It does what it says on the tin. You can use a pearl and it isn't consumed but will damage one neighbouring plated cargo dice instead.
Just wondering if there's going to be a patch 1.4
EVERYONE, after making the Coup Ahoo Document(Over 40 pages, Coup Ahoo Stuff - Google Docs) with my friends(p3nguins, DaFAtCh1ck3n, 92AAA, and like 5 others whose Itch accounts I can't remember), we finished a Coup Ahoo Wiki! Go check it out now, it has basically everything related to Coup Ahoo. All is trustworthy(We have over 300 hours total) and if you want to add anything, go ahead! Anttihaavikko, THANK YOU for creating such an amazing and addicting game.
Coup Ahoo Wiki | Fandom
You should add what each crew member does in the fandom although the info is already in the doc. You should also make everyone new in the doc in suggest mode and only a few people such as the original people in our class editors to avoid people spamming and ruining the whole do
- 92AAA
they can just comment here
I did add what every crew member does! It's in the "Crew Member" section. I MADE EVERYONE SUGGESTORS YOU SELLERS!
Also, does Slight Trinket even work?

“Controversial” ranking reasons:
is it normal i got to shoot the iceberg trice ?
the percentage appeared at the last shot (100%) and then i rammed it and got the exact same crew twice but the icebreg still fell and showed the failure message
You can shoot the iceberg as many times as you need as long as you don't get over 100%. But the rest doesn't sound normal
my favourite slaver vessel, "do you want this guy, or the same guy but better"
Which one did you choose?
