Science Friction is the second season of content on EnderCraft! You may have noticed that slime was a common factor in the final competitions of our February season, Breakthrough. We’re going to continue the story from those competitions by taking our newly-captured slime and using it as the subject of a historic experiment!

A new month means a new season, so put on your lab coat, slip into a snug pair of gloves and start up the bunsen burners because this one’s gonna get weird! Each week will reveal a new part of the story, not only through the competitions themselves but also through these lovely renders made by our illustrious moderator and community member Charmandog! What are your theories about the path this tale will take?

This Season At-A-Glance

A month of crazy competitions…

A chance to slime the Ender team!

Several members of the team have volunteered to be test subjects in a little experiment of our own! Want to see Nico and his fellow Enderians get slime dumped on their heads? Work together as a community to submit 150 total projects in the month of April and we’ll do it!

Snag some slime to enjoy at home!

We’ve added a cool and appropriately-themed new prize to the Ender prize store, so go check it out and maybe order your own souvenir to commemorate this season. There’s also a Tesla on the store now, just in case you’ve looking for something big to save up for.

Entirely new gameplay experiences…

Built in Minecraft for you to enjoy with the community! Our entire team has been working hard to create fun new game modes that you’ve never experienced anywhere else, and each one will be tied into the themes of this scientific season.

Even more surprises!
