CPU-based 2D particle emitter.

.. rst-class:: classref-introduction-group

Description
-----------

CPU-based 2D particle node used to create a variety of particle systems and effects.

See also :ref:`Particles2D<class_Particles2D>`, which provides the same functionality with hardware acceleration, but may not run on older devices.

\ **Note:** Unlike :ref:`Particles2D<class_Particles2D>`, the visibility rect is generated on-the-fly and doesn't need to be configured by the user.
