Carousel Block

This block works similarly to Ben’s Slider for Gutenberg but has more settings/options as it uses columns and horizontal scroll, making it a lot more detailed, flexible and intuitive to use:

Update: The block is working again:

I revisited this post and it seems to be working now, here is what it looks like with some images

And here with some text and images:
