This was so fun, but I honestly preffered just experimenting around with the drawing mechanic instead of doing the levels, It was really fun to try and draw a circle in the direction, that the wheel was spinning, since it would turn out wonky. How exactly does the comparing algorithm work though? In the first one I just decided to draw some fox, that was very much not simmilar to the image on the left and it still somehow gave me three stars (I guess the fox must have overlapped a lot with the circles).

Thanks for playing it!
I'll copy-paste an answer I gave to another user :P
I had to rewrite it a few times but the logic is simple: when you click "compare" it takes a snapshot of both target and player disc, reduce both images to 128 x 128 (with no antialasing) then divides the pictures in several concentrinc circles. Then it just looks ad the quantity of color in each section and compares it with the other side.
It's actually not a very accurate method of picture matching, but I prefer it that way so even less skilled player could get at least 1 star at every level easily :)
