Post excerpt:
Hi HN! We built a game for fun where you answer What Beats Rock? And you can type whatever you want. An LLM decides the outcome. Highscores reset every week. One fun finding: We tried a lot of models and we found that Llama-3 is not as good at linking concepts to emojis as GPT-4o. Ultimately, 4o had the best reasoning skills that made this game possible.

# Design Brief: Hand-Drawn & Sketch (with Minimal Monochrome)

Handwritten display accents, doodle annotations, and sketch-style illustrations.

## Design Tokens

```css
:root {
  --background: #ffffff;
  --surface: #dff2fc;
  --foreground: #101016;
  --muted-foreground: #777a7d;
  --accent: #244bd8;
  --radius: 8px;
  --font-heading: "Comic Sans MS", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
  --font-body: "Comic Sans MS", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
}
```

Color area ratio: Background #FFFFFF (~85%) · Surface #DFF2FC (~4%) · Text #101016 (~4%) · Muted Text #777A7D (~3%) · Accent #244BD8 (~4%). Background and surface dominate the canvas; reserve the accent color for primary buttons and active states.

## Layout & Conversion Structure

- Hero layout: Centered Headline + Input
- Navigation: Minimal Logo + Action
- Theme & density: Light · Airy
- Border radius & elevation: Medium Radius; use elevation shadows to separate layers
- Primary visual medium: 3D Render / Tactile Object
- Conversion CTA: Direct Input / Instant Try
- Headline hook: Brand Manifesto & Curiosity
- Hero components: Centered Prompt / Input, Interactive Hero Tool
- Spatial layout notes: Centered Headline + Input hero structure paired with direct input / instant try CTA and no explicit trust bar.
- Visual summary: Hand-Drawn & Sketch (Light canvas, airy density) featuring centered headline + input layout and 3d render / tactile object visuals.

## Avoid

- Rigid corporate stock photography
- Heavy 3D metallic renders
- Overly dense enterprise dashboards

Implement the UI following the design tokens and layout specifications above: use only these color variables, and reserve the accent color strictly for primary actions and active states. Adopt only this visual style—never copy any reference product’s brand name, logo, copy, or imagery.
