About

Slime blocks are soft, squishy blocks that bounce anything landing on them, nullifying fall damage and propelling mobs and players upward. They stick to adjacent pistons (but not to each other when pushed), making them essential for creating complex piston door mechanisms, flying machines, and mob transport systems.

You can harvest slime blocks by hand or with any tool, they have no mining time. They stack to 64, so you can quickly stockpile them when building large redstone farms or mob grinders. Slime blocks emit a faint glow and a slight squelch sound, making their presence obvious in motion-based contraptions.
