Is there a way to give a sprite a trail?

I'm also looking for something similar, if i understood you correctly. Like, the player object constantly creates new objects, which fades within x seconds?

I dont have the time to experiment, but try fooling around with emitting the same object from a desired angle, from the player, then fading it.

I assume you could start with making a single object, create the desired behaviour (movement, scaling, fadeout), then for example make the player object create that object every tick while moving or something.

Im just thinking loudly here :)

Just make a event that for every x seconds create a the trail sprite.

Set the trail to head of in a direction and fade after x seconds.

I do this to simulate smoke.

Nice @Yann :D

I wish we could use canvas for uploads to the arcade... same with spritefont :/

Thanks for the example Yann, it works great!
