The Messenger. Often gets compared to ninja gaiden (for good reason) but I actually got mega man X vibes from it. Awesome 2D platforming with metroidvania elements and a great gimmick. I also really loved Celeste and Katana Zero.
All three games have really responsive controls that feel great to use, which to me is the most important aspect of 2d games (outside of adventure/narrative games)
