Skill tree

The skill tree is where gold earned inside the pyramids is spent to apply permanent upgrades to the Redneck. There are 29 nodes in the skill tree, but many of them have a number of levels to upgrade beyond the initial purchase, resulting in a a total of 294 purchases to fill out the skill tree completely. Initially, only Attack Damage can be upgraded, but as points are applied to each node of the tree, it will grow and unlock new nodes until all 29 are available. Every point purchased in any given node will increase the price of every node on the tree, meaning that the player will need more and more gold to unlock nodes as the tree grows.

Nodes available to purchase
The central trunk of the skill tree consists of base stat upgrades and only require one point purchased in the prior stat to unlock. Each central node has branches that split off from it, most of these requiring multiple points purchased in the node closer to the central trunk to unlock.
