2,915 Pointswithout knowing what you entered, it sounds to me like you forgot the file list for the compiler :
mcs -out:TreehouseDefense.exe <<filelist>>
in the case of this project, the file list should all of your csharp source files(*.cs), so your command line should be:
treehouse:~/Workspace$ mcs -out:TreehouseDefense.exe *.cs
