Anyone remember a pc game back in the 90s where you make these little round critters and take them on this?

adventure and you have to keep as many of them alive as possible along the journey. I used to play this game in the library in grade school, along with wagon trail, carmen sandiego...ect. anyone remember this game? it had a name like goopeys or moobleys or somethin like that... anyway i always wanted this game but never got it and id like to remedy that in my adulthood. any help would be greatly appreciated!
