Don’t know if this would go here (factual answer) or Game Room (game, duh) or maybe Cafe Society (I dunno…for fun?)

Here’s what I remember.

1. It was styled to look like something out of Tron. Very wire-framey, bright neon blues-and-greens.

2. It was shareware.

3. It was something vaguely god-game-esque. You controlled groups of people (blue) and built like shamans(?), fighters, etc.

4. It came out around 2005 or so and was a brief 3 month wonder.  
Any ideas? It’s been bugging me for weeks.

Thanks in advance.

Wasn’t [Darwinia](http://www.introversion.co.uk/darwinia/about/screenshots.html), was it?

Can you say more about the gameplay?
