The technology of flight simming has advanced mightily since G-Police’s day. For instance: inEverspace 2’s just-announced Titans DLC, you get to fly inside not just regular old spaceships, but massive space kaiju with procedurally generated digestive systems. Here’s the trailer.

Sounds like a hoot, but space battles in Everspace are ten-a-pulsar. I’m more interested in the Leviathan storyline, which adds secretive star monsters that are effectively huge, roaming, spontaneously-forming dungeons with a taste for passing pilots. Here’s the blurb:
Sightings of the legendary Leviathan have spread amongst the fortune seekers of Cluster 34 including your least favorite cultists, the Redeemers. Venture deep into the Khaït Nebula to discover the truth of these massive, presumed-to-be-extinct creatures! Not all that is swallowed is lost–treasures are said to lay deep inside the bowels of this beast and that’s exactly where you’re going to end up. Travel inside to discover valuable new resources can be found inside the guts of these massive creatures. No two ventures inside will be the same as the many stomachs and organs of these beasts rearrange themselves.
Sound cool, I think? Not sincereading about Underspacehave I experienced such a frission of cosmic abandon. I can only imagine what teenage me would have made of being able to fly inside a space kaiju. I would have had no choice but to become Peter Molyneux. Anyway, the new Everspace 2 DLC doesn’t have a release date yet but you can always go coo overthe Steam page.
