They have other games, and this one is even more fun…
I consistently do better going counterclockwise
My best circle is 95.9% perfect, can you beat that?
The game not including Simon & Simon is really messing with me
But all the Simons they use are real Simons… Simon & Simon were fictional characters…
Prove to me that Simon Cowell is not a fictional character
Well, of course he has a (highly dickish) public persona, but as far as I know, he was born with that name…
Almost 90%, I’m quite happy.
Boy though, you really messed up on the bottom!
The use of color as you are drawing to show how close to perfect you are was a really interesting idea (though, based on the above, not implemented great in this case)
You are right, but I’m improving!
Don’t worry.
The accuracy is calculated averaging the last two radiuses, so if your hands are really shaky, you might still fare better than Giotto.
Frankly, the algorithm they use is total crap, as its definition of “roundness” seems to be very flexible, and off center good circles are penalized much more than squares, as the radius is fixed by the start of the drawing.
Sorry to be the party pooper, but my total ineptitude at hand drawing (with a mouse, to boost…) made me explore how to game the system.
This would be a fun party game
Going for the lowest possible score?
No, I just failed art class
