927 PointsDoes the namespace of all classes have to be the same name as the exe file's name?
TreehouseDefense is the namespace of all the classes in the project. If I compile the Game class as mcs Game.cs it gives me an error Are you missing an assembly reference? Does this mean The exe files name and all namespaces have to be the same?

To facilitate a complete analysis and more specific answer you can make a snapshot of your workspace and post the link to it here.
