Looking for a terraforming game?

I'm looking for an old terraforming game. You would be given one single planet, and you'd have the choice of your size of planet.

You would terraform the planet by clicking on it. Every few seconds you would get some credits to terraform the planet, but clicking on it would be more productive.

You would have to start off by adding water and plants, and eventually move up to animal life, human life, create cities, temperature-regulated cities (if the population was large enough), and so on.

This game was not SimCity, Spore, or Civilization. You did not interact with other people, but the game was browser-based.

Does anyone know the name of this?

Update:

The graphic quality of this game is horrible. Just one little pixel dot to designate each area you need to colonize and change. So a "volcano", for example, would be one little red pixel.
