Judge & Evaluator
The winner of this SVG challenge is GPT-4.1 mini (2025-04-14) Player 2

Judge's Analysis

    Player 2's image features a more dynamic composition with a detailed and expressive snail, a vibrant rocket, and a winding rainbow road that matches the prompt more closely.

    The technical quality is superior, with better shading and use of gradients, enhancing the visual appeal.

    Player 1's submission, while creative, is simpler and less polished in comparison.

These metrics analyze technical aspects of both SVG drawings. Look for differences that might explain the judge's decision. Use the "View Code" button above to see the SVG code for each drawing.

How does judging work?

SVG drawings are converted to static PNG images for evaluation. The AI judge receives the original prompt and both images, then determines which drawing better fulfills the evaluation criteria without seeing animations, interactivity, or SVG code.
