installing it through the gui doesn't work either since after I do it there is no raylib namespace

I wasn't using .net framework 4.7.2
if anyone else has this issue you need to switch to it and reinstall the package

or at least not for me

I am using visual studio 2019 and nether
dotnet add package Raylib-cs

Hmm. Can you share your .csproj file that you are adding to. It seems to be a issue with your project preventing it from using package references.

Also try building and running Raylib-cs-Examples to see if the same error occurs.

Rouge.zip

@chrisdill I can build and run the examples..

[Shadowblitz16]

stripping the examples to a basic app doesn't work tho
