So if anyone knows where I can get it, or if they can put it on this site however you go about doing such a thing, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks, Tiny.
I hope this is one of most impressive acts of necroposting every seen on this forum, but a little over 15 years later, I actually found what I was looking for.

It appears it was a game called "Eskimo Jo", released on Softdisk PC #96 apparently. I found it while searching on Archive.org.

Looks like my memories of it were considerably more fuzzy than I imagined, but this does seem like the game I played. Given it's literally the only one for DOS that I've found that fits my memories, I'm going to assume it is the same game I played as a child!
