Theme interpretation
The game I made is about a buddhist monk striving for enlightenment. If there's anything that has ever been truly a moonshot it is the quest for self-realization.

It's a fun concept, and it works fairly well. It's a bit unforgiving though that as soon as get one karma you'd better restart the game instead of going all the way to the end of the meditation level :)
I did manage to pass the first level with 0 karma, but always got hit by either the first row of speedy burgers or the next row of speedy beers in the meditation part... so no enlightenment for me!
I love you're mixing genres. Maybe you should avoid enemies spawning litterally on you haha.
Concept is really nice, but can't figure how to complete the meditation part. I'm avoiding those distractions but still it shows "Enlightenment not achieved".
Heaps of fun, did not expect to achieve enlightenment through avoiding pixel art bullet hell burgers ;D
I would have liked a way to earn back some "karma" after hitting a temptation - if I hit an item in the bullet hell room then it was quicker to just restart the game than to fail the enlightenment stage
