Hi everyone! I'm a professional video editor from Germany, and I turned my day job into a small arcade game.
Schnittgewitter (German for "editing storm") puts you in front of a timeline that keeps rolling. Clips fly in and you drop each one on the right track – picture, B-roll, dialog, atmos, music, SFX, titles. Junk goes in the trash, cuts on the beat score extra, and flawless scenes get nested and send you a star.
Nine client projects, from a wedding ("something emotional, but please not cheesy") to a publicly funded documentary about a roundabout – with change-request phone calls, a frozen editing app and a nephew who says AI could do it in five minutes.
- Free, no ads, no sign-up
- Plays in the browser on desktop and mobile
- About 15 minutes for all nine projects

I'd love to hear which client line you've heard yourself – and how far you get!
