This is not a gaem, as the title says. You have almost no control, but it makes you feel good. Hopefully this will cure your video game addiction.

Unfortunately, after your game, I did not get rid of addiction :D
Mmm the alluring sound of coins

Man, why not allow us to control the tiny "mario"?

Jokes on you, you can jump while right on the edge to never go deeper making the challenge of staying on your current floor have a smidge of gameplay.

Tiny doses of satisfaction. You follow the little guy as he journeys through a pipe full of coins. That's all though and I feel it could be a lot more..

I actually scored you quite high on humor for this!!! Mysteriously, SPACE, C, E and SHIFT all made the player jump... I found that part of the fun was exploring my keyboard to discover this! I have it in mind that I should suggest other game mechanics, but alas, as you state, it is not a game. Although, I will confess that I don't know the subtle differences between a game and a gaem. I think there's a realm of surrealist games out there waiting to happen. Perhaps you are game Magritte... Ceci n'est pas une game. I will view and rate anyone's game who gets that reference. Just ping me here!

@tim77 Nice discovery, though you missed one button. ENTER also works. These are the "Action" button in my engine's default bindings. Thanks for playing anyway!

The fact that this is still fun just goes to show how much of a difference good sound design makes. Good (not)game!

like a strange psychological experiment or art for the post video game generation. I found it hard to turn away and stop the collecting even though I knew there was no reason to stay. Interesting.
