Shade is a free game who's code is available under the MIT license. It's a casual affair wherein you try to collect as many mushrooms as you can before nightfall. However, if you walk in the sun you'll get burned so you have to stick to the shadows as much as possible. There are ten levels in all and global high score lists for each level as well as game-wide. Finally, it's available on all platforms in both a native format and as a Java webstart.
