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.

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?
A tier list if anyone needs one for their game:

“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?
wtf, game freeze again

I love the fact that if you pair the handler (or just birds in general) with splash damage, the birds also do splash damage. I've tried to (and successfully) gotten this combo many times and it helps to take down enemies early game and whatnot pretty easily if you try hard enough haha
it's the most op strat right now
omga i love your display name lol
bug
This error is really annoying. I've been trying to hunt it down without any luck really. Visited the ship probably close to a hundred times with different setups but always seems to return just fine for me.
Do you remember if the cap was visible on the uncollector ship after exiting? Did he do the jump animation back to your ship?
And of course any potential differences you might have noticed between those times it happened and those where it didn't.
"Do you remember if the cap was visible on the uncollector ship after exiting?"
Inside the ship = Yes. Afterwards = No.
"Did he do the jump animation back to your ship?"
I was a frog-captain with courage, maybe that?No. It was just like in that screenshot for me, too.
I noticed that Drill-Off offers an offline version. Could you also provide an offline version for Chop Ahoo? Thank you.
This was made from the group up to be a browser game (made for a JavaScript game jam) and thus can't easily be ported to any other platform. There is however a downloadable version on Steam but that is basically its own isolated browser where the game is running locally. Therefore it's quite resource intensive.
Oh, I wasn‘t aware of the existence of a Steam version. I simply wanted to be able to play without an internet connection, so I'll go ahead and purchase the Steam version. Thank you!
weird bug
EVERYONE: My friends(p3nguins, DaFAtCh1ck3n, 92AAA, and like 5 others whose Itch accounts I can't remember) and I have made a 40-page Google Doc on everything related to Coup Ahoo. Took us a month to make. Has everything from all the crew members(including divine and underworld ones) and what they do, to trinkets, suggested builds, all encounters, a tier list, and just random stuff. Enjoy.
Also, you can comment on anything that you want to add, we will fix it or reply in at most a few hours.
Coup Ahoo Stuff - Google Docs
I can't open it for some reason. Or is it just me?
here
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1LxMf6t6VHG53r-KF49hOdZRJUYzJuqozQ-s5qSN2P90/...
we made it on a school account, so you have to be in our school board to view it, so I made a copy of it on my not school account.
It still doesn't open. It says that there's an internal error
Ok the issue must be only for my phone because it opens just fine on my computer
The one that I sent is a copy of the school account one.
it's full of random pics
I can't get the loot since the keep and roll buttons are blocking it! Pls fix!
Is this the latest patch?
when the game updated i lost all my progress and the music stopped working do you know why?
Hmm, nothing but guesses really. It really shouldn't do that.
For music maybe you've accidentally hit N or M which toggles mute. Are the sound effects still playing? What about if you check the menu, is the music on there?
You sure you are using the same browser as last time and it wasn't an incognito tab? And what browser is that by the way? Also, when was the last time you played? It's very weird that the music state seems to have saved but the overall progress wouldn't have.
i played last on 1.3.9 i'm using the same browser chrome and it isn't an incognitto tab but i got the music fixed
