Actually, Darkstone has nothing to do with Push'em.
The game is created by me (as TeddyWareZ).

My point is: Chao5 is also coder @ Infinite, but Push'em is not @ the Infinite portfolio. If the group 'Darkstone' was created after Push'em then Push'em is not a "Darkstone & Twz"-cooperation. but an "R.Soft & Twz"-cooperation.
For the same reason, that little Xmas2002 of chao5 & me is not @ the Infinite portfolio, even tho it was created by 2 current Infinite members.. Xmas2002 was purely a Twz & Wolf product.

Not that I care btw, I just give my pov Smile

Darkstone owns R.Soft for 100%

for more information about R.Soft:

R.Westerhof alias Lord S.M.Zett

But it's a TwZ product. You (as R-Soft) did some of the gfx, which I'm thankful for, but I spend all summer on this project.
On your website I can read it's "released under the name R.Soft" but that's not correct.
There's also a line which says "Darkstone -- Push'Em [MSX]", while (like Wolf says) Darkstone has nothing to do with Pusm'em.

I can say it's pretty confusing seeing it as a 'product' (it's more of a portfolio than a product list) on the Darkstone site... especially when someone else created the game and made some graphics for it using a different name and even saying the game was released under that name. As a fellow developer I can understand chaos' position in this. I couldn't really believe what I read when Push'em was released by someone else than TwZ.

I would like to suggest you split this up into products (software really made by Darkstone) and portfolio (things you have done on products made by other people and/or MSX-groups) and also correct the information texts accordingly.
