Very original. Fun game. I'm sure people will be competing for first.

Don't be greedy.
When your air is at half, swim to the surface.
Collect pearls and resurface before you drown.
20 levels!
Watch out for rocks, kelp, and sharks!
Catch your breath at an air pocket.
Help:
Click to swim.
You only get one dive.
When you resurface with any pearls, you win.
You have enough air to swim about 10 strokes.
Click slowly. Each stroke costs 10% of your air.
Plan your route to get the most pearls.
You can replay a level to try to collect more pearls.
Your score is the most pearls you collected at each level.

I like the concept. are there keyboard controls or is this intended for mobile?

ethankennerly responds:
Yes, it is for mobile. And the exact angle of each click can get you a higher score than just going in 8 directions.
