	<brief_description>
		A 2D game object, parent of all 2D related nodes. Has a position, rotation, scale and Z-index.
	</brief_description>
	<description>
		A 2D game object, with a position, rotation and scale. All 2D physics nodes and sprites inherit from Node2D. Use Node2D as a parent node to move, scale and rotate children in a 2D project. Also gives control on the node's render order.
