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

Judge's Analysis

    Player 2's submission displays better compositional balance and adherence to the prompt, with a clear depiction of a jellyfish-shaped hot air balloon floating over a city at sunset.

    The color gradient and the glowing effect on the balloon create a more atmospheric and visually appealing scene.

    Player 1's image, while creative, has a less polished execution and a busier background that detracts from the central focus on the jellyfish balloon.

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.
