Blocks and survival flavor
Leaning into mining, redstone, mobs, and biomes, the language that only clicks once you have wired a piston door or wandered too far into the Nether. Pick one that matches how you play.

Tips for picking one
- Keep it to sixteen characters with only letters, numbers, and underscores, since that is the Java limit.
- If your pick is taken, add an underscore or number, like DeepSlate becoming Deep_Slate or DeepSlate12.
- Names that match your playstyle stick, since a redstone tinkerer and a speedrunner read very differently.
- Availability moves constantly, so keep a couple of backups and check the exact spelling before you change it.
