Playing the first level I was thinking "well this is an interesting idea, but where's the challenge?" - level 2 and beyond was a "this is more like it :)" moment. Really fun and innovative little puzzle game. I think I'd enjoy it more if the craft moved a bit slower - at the current speed I was constantly whizzing past the crates while trying to get in line to pick them up.
Love squeezing sound effect. I can drag the box and do stuff all day if there's enough people to squeeze. New things got introduced in consecutive levels, that's great, anyway I feel tired during in the latter mission (around 6-7) that maybe because I feel too repetitive.
I love how, unlike in many games, you actually move at a decent speed. Unfortunately, I'm still having a little trouble controlling it, since my keyboard is bad and won't do certain diagonals while holding X. This isn't really your fault, but could probably be mitigated by having X toggle the beam instead.
By the way, would you happen to be the Krankdud on the Dustforce leaderboards?
This was neat. My favorite thing was the graphics. The game was only fun if you moved recklessly at all times (it would probably improve the game if there were something in the gameplay encouraging that, like a time limit). This was unusually coherent for an LD game, I liked seeing both skill and puzzle sections-- the puzzles weren't super elaborate but it was nice to see an effort for puzzles at all. I liked how a bat causes a UFO to explode. Does it get sucked into a jet intake?
In the early levels the spaces looked very naturalistic and real-world believable, like cities or something, and then you get into the later areas and suddenly the levels are weird and cavernous and video game-y and make no sense as spaces that someone would actually build, there was a nice creeping surrealness there.

Maybe the first squishing phase is a bit too long but, just a detail.
