Hello everyone!

First of all, thanks for the excellent forum! It's amazing. My question is, how to make and which the best way to make a "Light trail effect". I've make this image from photoshop to illustrate:

The red dot is the point that the line shall follow. When the line becomes long, needs to fade out. I thought 2 possibilities to do it : Particles  or slice and manipule a "shape" (texture), dividing in 3 parts, like :

trail-2.jpg

 

My doubt is, what is better? Or have other way to do... And, the Particles or Particles Storm from Phaser can do this?
Sorry for my bad english :(
Thanks for patience! :D

Your English is great. I would try it each way and see which one you like more. I made a light trail with particles and liked how it looks. You could also draw the tail dynamically using a bitmapdata. Or you could pre-generate the texture like you were talking about as well.
