Ahoist Cratey is a new puzzlescript puzzler by Thinky Collective, a group of developers where each person added on a little bit to the game (a level, a mechanic, and/or polish) and then passed it on to the next person. (Z key to undo a move, R key to restart a level)

Not sure how this is supposed to work.
I can't get anywhere at all.
Desperately in need of a walkthrough over here!
Haven't found a walkthrough, but here are some basics:
Sokoban with gravity, so you and the crates will fall.
You can move left-right, and can "jump" up one, but will fall back. The jump is important for getting the treasure in most of the levels I've gotten through.
You can move up one level by moving left/right onto a platform or crate, provided the crate can't move.
"Walkthrough" for level 1: Move right and push crate off ledge. Move right so you fall on top of crate. Move LEFT, then right to push crate against other crate. Crate stops moving, move right again and you're on top of crate. Jump up one to get treasure.
Later levels introduce hoists. You can step left/right into a hoist box, then use up/down to move it and yourself up or down. You can also step on top of a hoist if you're on that level.
Seconding the walkthrough request.
I did discover that you can pick arbitrary levels on the "level select" screen, so you don't have to be stuck forever on a given level.
I am severely stuck on #10 at the moment, just not seeing it.
Hah! Power of posting, got #10.
I'm stuck on 10 too, can you give us a hint?
hints level 10 :
- one side at a time
- with one side, get rid of the box up the lift
- with the other side (and the help of one box already down there), reach the exit
Nope. Still nothing. More help?
Never mind!
Any tips for level 15?
@Anonymous I jumped ahead to that one, you can "double-stack" the players.
Once they're double-stacked, you can push the stack of boxes around, and get on the other side of it using the right-most hoist. Then you have options.
Full solution for #15:
LDL -> stack the players.
DD 8R -> push the boxes past the far hoist.
UDDUURR -> Get the players on the other side of the stack
LLUL -> Break up the stack.
3L -> Push one block into position.
4R UDDURR 5L -> Jump over the other block and push it into position also.
5L ULD -> Re-assemble the player stack on the left edge.
3U 4R -> Get the stack under the booty.
U -> Grab it.
Thanks so much, Urban Garlic!
Stuck on 16 currently
#14?
Was also stuck on #16 for a long time.
Solution:
3D 6R -> get over to the two right-most hoists, need to set these up.
RUULD UURUD -> Arrange the top bits.
LDR 4D LLULUR -> Put the block under the hoist
5L 2D 5R -> Go by way of the left-most hoist, we will need this.
3U RU UR 5D -> Final reconfig on the right two hoists.
7L 2U 4R -> Back by way of the leftmost hoist set up previously.
UR DR LDDRR 5U -> Take the block to the top.
LU 4R -> Drop the block on the right.
R LRR -> Follow it down and get behind it, then on top.
U -> Grab the thing.
@Unknown for 14 you need to stack the 3 crates under the target.
Do it from right to left.
Use the lower lift (on the right) mechanism on top to align/unalign the blue and the brown.
Finished, by the way
Interesting one.
If anyone is still stucked, my walkthrough is online at https://youtu.be/_ReCALrv37w
