GIF Clipper

GIF Clipper turns gameplay footage into optimized GIFs for game pages, devlogs, and sharing.

Set a maximum file size and let GIF Clipper automatically search for a high-quality export that fits under it.

Select the part of your video you want, choose a maximum file size, and GIF Clipper tests different resolutions, frame rates, and colour combinations to find a high-quality result that fits your target.
