Well apart from those two, there are a lot of good ones. You Have To Win The Game is one I have run, and it's free. Ori & The Blind Forest is one I want to get into once I buy the game, and it seems like a fairly popular run. I've been practicing Guacamelee lately, which is a fun action platformer. There's also I Wanna Be The Guy and its infamous (and seemingly impossible) fangames, with Boshy being the most well-known out of them. You also have the option of the standard 2D platformers from the 80s and 90s. Star Guard is a fun one I've played in the past, and it's also free.

There's a lot of 2D platformers. :P

Metal Slug or I Wanna Be The Guy games if you want something hard. Tho a lot of I Wanna Be The Guy fangames vary a lot in difficulty, and length, and quality.

Turok is a good 3D platformer. Risk of Rain if you like rogue likes. I haven't tried it myself yet but Out There Somewhere gets a lot of love.

I personally love Bleed. It's a quick, tight, fun and great to run.

Shovel Knight should be in here too :)
