Judge & Evaluator
The winner of this SVG challenge is O1-mini (2024-09-12) Player 1

Judge's Analysis

    Player 1's image better adheres to the prompt with the inclusion of melting numbers, which are a key aspect of the concept.

    The clock face is clearly visible, and the background effectively conveys a starry night sky.

    Player 2's image lacks the melting numbers, making it less aligned with the prompt despite its clean design.

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.

Prompt Adherence

How accurately the SVG captures the essence of the prompt.

Visual Appeal

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.
