I need help trying to find a game I used to play as a kid in the late 90's. I've been looking for years trying to find it, but so far, I've had no luck.

I played the game in the late 90's early 2000's on an old apple G4 on either OS 8 or OS 9. I'm pretty sure it was some form of shareware or freeware I had downloaded from the internet. The textures and graphics were pretty nice for a 2D game.

The best way I could describe the game is that it was a strategy game similar in style to a Sokoban/Bomberman/Cosmonutz type game where the player played as a space ship captain whose mission is to send aliens back to their home planet.

Each level would get progressively harder and harder as the player had to push boulders/rocks into position to try and trap an alien to warp/send it back to its home planet, all while trying to avoid being touched/caught by one of the aliens. The player had to continue trapping the aliens by moving the boulders/rocks until all aliens were cleared from the level. Power ups could be found on almost every level, that would enable a player to wipe out or freeze all aliens on that level.

Again, it looked similar in style to a Sokoban game and another game called Cosmonutz, But played similar to Cosmonutz.

If anyone can help me out here, I would really appreciate it. I've been looking for years, and still haven't found it. It was a great game.
