DYO is a free and mind-bending cooperative platformer with 30 levels. It also features 10 Steam achievements, all documented in the walkthrough below.

While the game hints to "cooperative" in its description, this title is completely soloable and can be fully completed without the help of any other players.
Most levels are finished by abusing the auto-solve feature. If you want to beat the levels on your own, go ahead, but it will take way longer than the estimated completion time.

ㅤ ㅤ ㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤㅤㅤBig thanks to Genieben for discovering the auto-solve trick.ㅤ ㅤㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤ ㅤㅤ

Minotaurs are named WASD and Arrows based on their controls respectively in order to know which action must be performed with each one.
Estimated Completion Time: 10 minutes.

ㅤ

Start a New Game and choose keyboard controls when asked (bottom right).

Press Ctrl + F2 to instantly win a level. Repeat for all but the last one.

Welcome to the labyrinth! Solve your first puzzle by merging the split screen.

Where to now? Reach the Crossroad.

Wall Whisperer Solve all levels on the yellow path.

Big Deal Solve all levels on the red path.

Pushover Solve all levels on the green path.

So easy now Finally cross that bridge.

Last level "△△△" must be completed manually.
Walk right with the WASD Minotaur until aligning the right half of the huge minotaur to the middle of the screen.

Press S key to lock the screen.
Move left with the Arrows Minotaur until aligning the left half of the huge minotaur to the middle of the screen.
Press Down Arrow to lock the screen.

After both halves are connected, press S + Down Arrow several times until the door is fully open.

DYO Finish the game.

Load "Π ❘" level.
Move the WASD Minotaur to the left wall and press S.
Move the Arrows Minotaur and jump down the gap. Press Down.
Make sure the rat is still visible on the right screen.

Move the WASD Minotaur up to the rat hole, then press S to unlock the screen.

Go left with the WASD Minotaur and jump down to the second step in order to align the left and right platforms, so it looks exactly as shown in the following screenshot:

Then, press S to lock the screen.
The rat will automatically run to its hole.
If it doesn't, simply jump out the gap with the Arrows Minotaur and lure it manually.

Eternal Gratitude Help the rat find its hole.

Load level II of the Yellow path.
Jump out with the WASD Minotaur and run right until this point:

Now, move right with the Arrows Minotaur and stand at this location:

Then, press Down.
Lastly, walk left with the WASD Minotaur to squash the other one:

Bully "Accidentally" squash a minotaur.

Load this level (near the top).
Jump down with both minotaurs, setting their locations as follows:

Press S and Down to lock both screens.
Jump out the gap with the Arrows Minotaur and then push the block right with the WASD Minotaur

It will shrink on the left side of the screen:

Now, keep pushing the tiny block to the right, making sure that the wall on the right isn't interfering on its path. Adjust by unlocking/locking the screen again if needed.
The objective is that the tiny block doesn't get stuck on the right wall and you can keep pushing it until it's in its smallest form.
If the block gets stuck, hold Shift to rewind and adjust as needed.

Refer to the following gif (click here[thumbs.gfycat.com]) for an animated example.
If done correctly, you'll get:

Pixel Art Shrink a block really small.

thanks for the guide! For the final clean up achievement you just say 'Load this Level', if you wanted to be more specific the level is "Red/Green I" after completing the Red and Green paths

@KelpTheGreat what are you crying about, he wrote the guide for free, you got nothing to be crying about when someone is trying to help, way better than to do it alone.

The guide was great, another game finished, thanks.

Thanks!

Generally, when I see the word "walkthrough," I expect a step-by-step guide on how to properly complete a game - where to go, how to solve puzzles, strategies for tough bosses, that sort of thing.

I DON'T expect "just use the level completion cheat code to complete each level."

I think you should rename this guide to something along the lines of "how to get all the achievements for this game as fast as possible."

DYO achievement doesn't pop after the name of the game pop (when you finish the 20 sec level lol) any idea if there is a way to fix this? I'll start from scratch anyway so if the answer is start fresh I don't mind. Thx!
