Metal Slug is the oldest game I've seen do this but surely it's been done before right?

Sonic 1 is probably the first widely-known game to have that

Prince of Persia had something like that, where he would get scared the first time you walk towards the edge.

Honestly yeah I wouldn't be surprised if that was the first instance of it.

Sonic is the earliest one I can remember seeing.

It's crazy to think that game is that old. I probably didn't play it til 97 or 98 but it still felt fresh for the time even considering everything was moving to full 3D or isometric with 3d models. A lot of detail in that game.
