Coup Ahoo

Did it get stuck there?

The trident from this picture gives +1 max roll for your attack dice. The other trident you get from courage blessing makes your attack deal 666 damage if you roll 0 or 13

Mainly it's a puzzle. It's not all too complicated though, I'd suggest taking it a bit slower and paying more attention to what is shown.

Thanks!

Nothing really. It's like your "rank" on the fleet. You're the last one and there are 13 others.

Press the set sail button there. 

Flat earth confirmed!

It's caused by the event you had before. Who ever you don't pick gets added to the next enemy (upgraded).

Well obviously I know but I don't want to completely spill the beans. But you are indeed on the right track and correct on those words. There is also features in game that allow you to decipher their language easier.

how did you even do this

Wait, no. It only loops if I keep pressing "space" instead of selecting a dice manually. Still a bug though

Hi. I think the heart dice holds a certain amount of hit points. Haven't figured out how much it holds, yet. But eventually the heart will crack and be destroyed.

The plate kit has some sort of arrow on it like a " >" which shows the direction which dice next to it will be plated. I think it just works on normal white dice and not on orange spice or other plated dice.  So when you have a white 5 dice next to its >, you should get a 5 plated dice in return.

The computer opponent will probably use the same strategy as the player when it comes to incoming damage. You roll a 14 and it sacrifices a low dice, because the higher dice could be useful later.  You roll low, e.g.  a 3 and it puts the damage on a dice that won't be destroyed like one with 4. Leaving him with a 1 on that dice but having still the same number of dice left, thus having still the same roll chance. 

Speaking of chance, there's no way to beat this game each time. Much is based on "luck" and the crew you might get. Dream teams are repair guys giving +1 on your dice when you roll a 0. A cannoneer giving you multiple shots or splash damage. A bard to boost their abilities and a good figurehead etc.

I usually try to keep as much dice in stock as I can and then hope for the best. Good luck :)

Didn't bother making a dev log as I just fixed some bugs and added pad controls support.

Do you remember what happened on that abandoned ship? Did you get any loot or it just froze? I'm guessing it silently threw some error and just stopped executing. Did the screen transition to black and back though right after the initial jump?

Yeah it's very luck dependant and some early events can really carry you far. Like in your case, a level 5 mate is sure to give you so much extra events that you're bound to be above the difficulty curve of enemies getting harder. But I don't really mind that there are some pretty busted things (right now at least) when there is no scoring/leaderboard or any other competitiveness (yet maybe).

There are actually two different tridents. You have both cases in those above pictures. One is just an extension of frogifying yourself and one just a consolation prize when you don't have crew members to upgrade.

If the dice values of your (or the enemy) sum to 13, you lose a turn. And if the damage dice value totals 13, it does no damage.

Orange dice are spice. They behave just like normal dice but can also be used in trading.

Valid point. So basically, all dice are cargo. Spice cargo pieces usually can't be plated. Shipwright specifically plates only "found cargo pieces" meaning enemy drops and floating cargo. I guess the wording on that isn't quite clear enough.
