After a slight snafu yesterday that saw the latest trailer for Hand Circus’s highly anticipated puzzle/platformer Rolando yanked just minutes before I’d posted it, iPhone publisher ngmoco has released new trailers for its two upcoming “fast apps” (lower price-tier games like their free Maze Finger and 99 cent Topple): Dr. Awesome, Microsurgeon M.D. and Dropship.

The wonderful part of Dr. Awesome? It’s not the over-dramatic Phoenix Wright/Trauma Center portrait art, or the Qix-like gameplay, it’s the fact that you’re performing surgery on your friends, as imported from your phone’s address book.

As for Dropship, I’ve got a strong suspicion that touching will be believing — I’ve been miming my fingers overlaid on top of the video trying to get a feel for how it works and though it’s not quite connected yet, I’m suitably enamored with its radiant vector design.

Check out the gameplay trailer video for Dr. Awesome after the jump.
