Minecraft has a lot of blocks, but what if they had more? Why do we need them? Please don't just add lists of things - these will be marked as spam and removed! Also, no furniture, guns, or vertical/"sideways"/"upright"/"standing" slabs (yes, we see you).

A Bouncy Ball Idea

This item will act like an item thrown on a slimeblock, but in this case it will be throwm by a player. You can charge it by holding your right mouse button, the longer you hold it the further it will go. It will act like a bow when you throw it, but instead of going up to 40 blocks it will go around 15 at maximum charge. The bouncy ball can only be picked up when its not bouncing anymore, you can stop it bouncing by: Placing water, Blocking the bounce, letting it bounce till its stops. If you throw it on a button or presure plate it will activate it. The bounces that the ball makes will be calculated by the charge you give it, how high you throw it and or it will bounce of a hill/clif.It will look like a pixel spehere, the standart 16x16 pixels. The size should be good at 8 pixel. A recipie could be a slimeblock in the middle surrounding it with slime ball's. Why should this be in the game you ask me now, minecraft doesnt have many items for fun purposes, even because its a survival game but sometimes you need some fun. Its something that will bounce back, could play dodgeball with it, basketball and many more. The name could be: Bouny Ball. Did I missed something? Leave a comment so I can improve my idea!

    Why?  So far you’ve outlined a thing to add to the game and what it can do, but not why it would be useful or why people would want to do it.  Other than the obvious “so you can throw bouncy things” I guess....

    Minecraft has redstone.  That is a fun purpose.

    I was just going to post and ask for a ball to play dodgeball. I've built this big coliseum and I want one of the mini games to be dodgeball. Just 6 balls that don't break on impact but maybe give off an effect so spectators and refs can see someone has been hit and is out. Its fun with snowballs but kinda sucks because they go away after thrown and also if there are stacks on the court players get to throw unlimited balls.

    wonderfull idea

    You can also make balls that give different potion effect when they hit a player or a mob. You can craft them as the tipped arrow, with the lingerine potion. 

    You can make differnt typeof balls. There is the regular one and it can be used for crafting.

    For example if you sourround it with slime balls it will be more bouncy. If you sourround it with leather it will be less bouncy but you can thow it further. If you sourround it whit redstone it will give an input signal proportioned to the velocity of the ball in that moment to the block it is touching. If you sourround it with phantom membrane it will have an effect of slow falling (like a beachball).

    You can also dye your ball with different color.
