We get thousands of emails every day demanding we 'make Minecraft stickier!'. Usually we just ignore them (they're pretty weird), but that all changes this week, with the addition of the honey block. Enjoy!

Honey Block
Sticky. Very sticky!
- Walking and jumping is limited
- If you stand on a honey block that is pushed by a piston, you come along for the ride
- Jump into a wall of honey blocks to slide down and slow your fall
- Landing on a honey block cushions your fall somewhat
- When a honey block is pushed or pulled by a piston, it attempts to move all adjacent blocks in the same direction (just like slime blocks)
- Mobs and animals dislike walking on honey blocks. Too sticky for their comfort
Honeycomb Block
BYOH - Build Your Own Honeycomb
- Craft 2x2 Honeycomb to get a Honeycomb Block
- Purely decorative!
Accessibility
- Sneak and Sprint inputs can now be switched between Hold and Toggle mode in the Accessibility Options.
- Descriptions under buttons on the Create World screen are now narrated.
Spectate
New command that makes a player in spectator mode spectate an entity. Syntax: spectate [target] [player]
Parameters:
- player - The player that should spectate the target. Must be in spectator mode. If omitted, @s is used.
- target - The target to spectate. If omitted, makes the player stop spectating.
