Wow... this is great! It reminds me of Pitfall II, but, you know... less square. I admit, I didn't find the treasure - but I had a really good time trying. The mechanic of finding oxygen is very satisfying.
I think you should polish this up, add some baddies/some-kind-of-conflict/extra mechanic and it could be a really great game.

It was incredible how moody game you've created with such a simple graphics. I really enjoyed diving down to the unknown. :)

I really liked it. :) Reminds me of the games I used to play as a kid. Well done! Is there an end?

Here is the proof that without graphics, without libs, without audio, but using a good concept and writing good code, you can make games that feel good to play!
Well done !
The swimming felt very fluid and rewarding - I didn't complete the game but I got pretty deep :D

Nice game, I especially like the great atmosphere! I think it would be even better with some audio. It's hard to breathe normally while playing this game.

No sound, simple graphics, but great atmosphere! :)
I haven't found the treasure yet, but I enjoyed the game a lot. I would rather have more colored graphics and some sound effects.
You have my respect for not having used external libraries.
