Found a solution and wanted to post it in case someone was looking for the same thing. I realized I was approaching this wrong. I later found that acf_register_block_type() function accepts a argument called 'enqueue_assets'
So now my code looks like this, and it works like a charm.
// register logo carousel block
acf_register_block_type(array(
'name' => 'logo_carousel',
'title' => __('Logo Carousel'),
'description' => __('Logo Carousel'),
'mode' => 'edit',
'render_template' => 'blocks/wp-content/logo-carousel.php',
'enqueue_assets' => function(){
wp_enqueue_style( 'slick-slider-css', 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/slick/slick.css', array(), null, 'all');
wp_enqueue_script('slick-slider-js', 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/slick/slick.min.js', array( 'jquery' ), null, true );
wp_enqueue_script('slick-slider-init', get_template_directory_uri() . '/blocks/scripts/logo-carousel.js', array(), null, true );
},
'category' => 'my-custom-blocks',
'icon' => 'images-alt2',
'keywords' => array( 'logo', 'carousel', 'slider'),
));
I feel kind of dumb for not figuring it out earlier, especially since I had already been using 'enqueue_script'. Learning experience I guess.
