I've heard Hollow Knight and Shovel knight are good?

Sonic Mania
>Platformer
Super Mario World if you want 2D or Super Mario Galaxy if you want 3D.
>Metroidvania
Large interconnected maps that see you collecting upgrades that augment your characters abilities which let you get to other places in the map and unlock shortcuts to cut down on backtracking.
Hollow Knight is definitely one of the best I've ever played but I would recommend Super Metroid or Aria of Sorrow before Hollow Knight.
