'Dr. Awesome' and 'Dropship' Previews From Ngmoco

posted November 20th, 2008 12:37 AM CST by arn in Upcoming Games

Last we heard from Ngmoco, they were still hammering out details on the release date of Rolando despite some initial hints that we'd hear an official released date today. It seems, however, they were comfortable enough to reveal two other games that they have been working on by posting these videos to their blog.

Dropship

Dr. Awesome

Both of these games have been described as "fast apps" by Young, which indicate smaller games priced inexpensively like Topple and Mazefinger.

    The release date for Rolando is December 12th. There was an announcement on YouTube, I think.

  2. AIM-R8 Says:

    Dropship looks awesome! Can't wait!

  3. Oliver Says:

    Dropship looks a bit hard to control but interesting and this Doctor thing is, regarding the minigame, a 100% rip-off of Virus.

  4. arn Says:

    looks more like a Qix clone than

    they need to fix the sound of the spaceship's rockets…. sounds like a bad fart.
    And Dr Awesome sounds good and quite fast-paced, but can't help thinking it looks and plays like Bix already on the App Store (although doesn't look anywhere as near fancy as NGcomo's offering)

  6. Oliver Says:

    I, yeah, sorry, I meant Qix ;)

  7. Oliver Says:

    Hmm. Does Dropship only look cool because you don't see the big fingers triggering the round menu? :)

  8. alexandre leboucher Says:

    Haha ,dr awesome:) exellent idea to replace the patient name with its own !
    + I love qix

    I want this!

  9. Noah Says:

    Shoot, I was hoping for a Trauma Center clone :)

  10. 3Dave Says:

    Me too, Noah. Maybe this is just one of the mini-games though and the others will be more like TC.

  11. Wabaam Says:

    apparently theres noobs here who think this is like virus? WTF? in virus you fill a screen. in dr. awesome you apparently "remove" the infection by doing that cutting thing. any similarity? NO.

  12. Fat Phil Says:

    Let's see… fill it in, cut it out. fill it in, cut it out.

    Hmm. Yup, sounds like semantics to me.

    I must be a noob. are noobs cool nowadays then? :)

  13. cree Says:

    also a noob here :-)
    am i wrong or is EVERY game from ngmoco "inspired" by another game? it started with "mazefinger" (rip off of arcade machine "hot finger") and now this (dr. awesome - phoenix wright graphics and qix-like gameplay)

  14. Oliver Says:

    Well, for me that's ok. When they rip-off New Super Mario World, Mario Kart and Age of Empires, I'll be the first to buy that ;).
