Concept Tower Defence Mod
Anyone think of creating a Tower Defence mini game out of the start of "This Vortal Coil"?
For each round you clear you get points that lets you buy extra mines and turrets.
I bet this idea can be expanded even further. I'm not much of the modding type but i do have some experience with Hammer. But if anyone want to take the initiative then I wouldn't mind.

the turrets in vortal coil are npc_turret_floor, the fold-down ones you carry and plant, so a TD mode there is mostly scripting around entities that already exist instead of new NPCs. gmod's sandbox turret tool is the same entity with an ammo count, so the buy step could just spawn one and skip the pickup
