Minecraft Earth: Glass Wonders Challenge

How have you been spending your summer in Minecraft? Our Minecraft Earth community has been busy with their recent build challenges, exploring the Wild West, revisiting fairy tales, and also working with unique constraints. This time, the challenge presented a theme based around (but not limited to) a single block: glass.

Glass has been a part of Minecraft since 2009 and has a number of great uses – beacons, bottles, daylight sensors, and of course, windows. However, we’ll direct you to the much lengthier discourse on glass’s illustrious history inside and out of the game here since we know you’re here for the builds (like Spaceman Steve above, by NinjaK).

Glass is a great material for a challenge. With so many colors to choose from, you might find yourself creatively blocked. (What a pane.) Fortunately, the community has provided a number of clearly inspirational pieces below for us to reflect on.

Have you checked out our official Discord channel? If you’re looking for a new way to meet other community members and level up those building skills, our Minecraft Earth build challenges are held every few weeks and feature themes that will surely inspire your next creative project. The community always welcomes new builders to join in the fun, so check out the complete collection of community entries as well as what your fellow community members are working on now.
