Fun simple, limitation and theme incorporated in an intelligent way, I loved everything about this game except for the sound effect for lowering and raising the crane which hurt my ears a little. Stellar entry! :)

It's so exciting! Very simple and unusual mechanics 
 in the implementation without bugs. I would love to play this on mobile/

great news! You can play pico 8 games on your phone! I've also got it accepted in the amazon fire app store and I'm working on a android and ios version. I'll also be expanding it over the next couple of weeks, and releasing a longer version too! (More levels, more difficulty,  more things to pick up)

Great, I'll follow

I really enjoyed playing and would have kept going for harder challenges.  There was also way too much time for me, but that might just be me.  Here is a video of me playing:
