I really like how the maker(s) achieved the craggy texture of the iconic Marvel comic's 'Thing'. The character is certainly not among the easiest to cosplay, so I applaud the maker(s) being able to take on the task with such a fine result.

Yann Seznec, of the indie studio Lucky Frame, revealed in a blog post on Gamasutra that Lucky's most recent release has so far sold less than 2,000 copies but has been pirated over 50,000 times.
Given the tragedy of this, Seznec was remarkably fair and understanding of the unique circumstances that surround Gentlemen!'s piracy popularity. Demonstrating remarkable self control, Seznec points no angry fingers, but instead offers an analytic "post-mortem" of what may have lead to the dismal legitimate sales of their most "successful" game.
