We are now 4 days away from Wired Direct! Where our publishers will be announcing the next great batch of indie games for you to fall in love with!
There may also be an update or two related to a game you're pretty familiar with....
To celebrate the occasion they are also giving away a brand new Oculus Quest 2 for one lucky winner who jumps onto the stream page and hits the notification bell!

Change log
- Controller remapping
- New input calibration, (No visual cues, you should just listen and tap)
- Input related settings are saved per device so you can have different settings among players when playing multiplayer. (there is always one person wants to invert the y axis :wink:
- Various bug fixes
- Timing windows adjusted to be more forgiving to compensate for inaccurate input timing on some systems
The input update
You can access the beta by right-clicking on AVICII Invector then select Betas from the menu and choose "Beta - Public testing".
We will let this test run over the weekend and if nothing severe is reported the patch will be live on Monday next week together with a leaderboard reset. That way we have some time to archive the old leaderboards for safekeeping.

Win a Designer Jacket, Switch and copy of the Game!
Our new trailer featured a custom Avicii themed jacket from designer Alice Vandy!
We've created a brand new charity auction competition on ebay in which you can win :
- The designer jacket shown in the trailer
- A Nintendo Switch
- A copy of Avicii Invector Encore Edition
All proceeds raised from the auction will be going direct to Special Effect, a charity who strive to bring inclusion back into the lives of those with physical disabilities by helping them play video games!
You can learn more about Special Effect by checking out their website here : Special Effect Website
And find the charity auction itself by clicking here : Ebay Charity Auction
The team at Wired Productions and Hello There Games are consummate music fans and aim to make an impact with our efforts. All of AVICII Music’s net proceeds will go directly to the Tim Bergling Foundation, which advocates for the recognition of suicide as a global health emergency and promotes removing the stigma attached to the discussion of mental health issues.
An Update reference our Avicii Switch Lite Charity Raffle
Just wanted to give everyone a quick update reference the charity Ebay auction for the 5th Avicii Switch Lite.
If you bought a raffle ticket (thank you!!) you will have received an email from ebay this morning stating the auction had been removed.
Long story short - our auction was suspended:
Despite working directly with eBay, a separate team, unaware, ended the auction. They have apologised but it is irreversible.
Safe In Our World is going to refund ALL donations. As a small charity with no grants, it is a bit of a pain, but the right thing to do.
In the meantime please sit tight and await your refund - and we are currently setting up a new home to hold the auction.
We will share more soon - thank you for your patience! 💕
Raise money for Charity with our Custom Switch Lite! ◢◤
As part of the celebrations, we created 5 custom White Nintendo Switches. Four were released via competitions in the build-up to the games' release.
But for the last we are doing something a little bit special...
We've placed the final switch on Ebay as a raffle auction - Raffle entries are available to purchase for just £5, with every single penny raised being donated to Safe In Our World, the video games mental health charity. The winner will receive a custom Nintendo Switch console and copy of AVICII Invector: Encore Edition.
Given the nature of Avicii's legacy which has included discussion mental health and awareness of it as a global issue - it felt only fair to honour that part of Avicii's story, and use the power of the Avicii fanbase and gamers worldwide to help support a charity which combines all of those elements in a powerful way.
