“Finally, Mario Bricks”: Minecraft Fans Thrilled About New Resin Blocks Set for Winter Drop

Minecraft has introduced an exciting new experimental item known as resin, adding a fresh building material to the game. The resin block features a vibrant orange hue, creating a striking contrast against the pale and gray tones characteristic of the Pale Garden biome, where players can discover this novel resource.

A Reddit user, u/reesespieceskup, shared images showcasing the new resin block within the game’s subreddit, prompting community discussions regarding the aesthetics and potential of collecting resin.

While the community showcased interest, some players expressed their dislike for the block’s texture, comparing it to candy and noting its distinctness from other blocks in the environment. Interestingly, the original poster had never envisioned the inclusion of resin blocks prior to this update.

In response to the resin block’s reveal, user u/Chicken-lord_hubert remarked:

“Finally, Mario bricks”

This comment draws a playful connection to the iconic orangish bricks seen in the classic Super Mario game for NES, as the resin bricks bear a resemblance to those found in Super Mario Bros. These blocks can be fashioned by melting resin clumps in a furnace.

User u/SkyLightYT added that Mojang Studios might treat this block similarly to copper, which was incorporated into the game without a defined purpose at first.

User u/Blueboy1991 praised the appearance of resin but suggested enhancing gameplay by allowing players to dye it. This idea resonated with u/IdahoJoel, who also found the prospect of creating dyed blocks for walls, stairs, and slabs exciting.

Mojang Studios has recently announced the launch of several experimental features for the Pale Garden biome. When players break or eliminate the Creaking Heart, the power source for the Creaking mob, they obtain resin. This resin can be transformed into bricks for construction purposes.

New to the biome are eyeblossoms, a unique plant with two forms: opened and closed. These flowers bloom at night, displaying an orange hue, while they remain closed during daylight hours. Eyeblossoms can be utilized for crafting dyes and suspicious stews.
