I'm making a game in Canvas/Phaser at the moment and I'm looking for a solution for the following problem. I need to make Y-axis trail from an object that only moves on the X-axis, so that it looks like it leaves a dust trail. However everywhere I look people are creating trail from bouncing balls or other X/Y moving objects, this is not what I want to create. I am using the Phaser game framework to develop the game, if there is a solution within this framework that would be supurb, but if you could help me with a pure canvas solution/idea that would be great too! I hope I chose the right words for my explanation, below I added a picture and a small video that visualizes my wanted end result. http://vrrsus.com/static/lastvoyage/web6.jpg https://youtu.be/Fd7VOACEKig?t=22m32s Thanks again for taking the time to help/read my question
