Judge & Evaluator
The winner of this SVG challenge is O4-mini medium (2025-04-16) Player 2

Judge's Analysis

    Player 2's submission demonstrates stronger adherence to the prompt with a clear depiction of a glowing miniature city inside a geode-like structure.

    The composition is visually cohesive, and the glowing effect adds depth and appeal.

    While Player 1's work is creative, its abstract nature makes it less clear and engaging as a representation of the prompt.

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.
