here's one i'm not sure if you've mentioned or not. just maybe wanted to push you in its direction.
christmas island, by chris street (aka circy, aka euphoric rush, aka circlesoft) is sort of a retro-platform-puzzler in the style of a very, very old game by o3 software called super awesome adventure.
it's a great little game because of how the puzzles are based on the movement of the player, which is an interesting, grid-based platform movement. also, taking a page from games like jet set willy, it is a room-based game, with each room having its own name, and there's a similar degree of exploration involved.
anyways, i enjoyed it, and it's not a game i can really write about for pigscene, but it's something that maybe you'd want to check out. so
check it out, MOSHBROIf you think about it, this is really canabalt...
nah, i don't think that's a valid comparison, but i do consider it sort of a proto-procedural game. i've always wanted to revisit the game idea though, and make a sequel.
