Abe’s Oddysee maybe, though cinematic platformers are kind of their own thing

Doesn't count because it's not in the game, just done using the same elements the game uses. That's like rearranging the words in a book to tell a different story and saying it's comparable to the original.

I think it doesn't matter if it's a romhack because OP asked about mechanics only. As far as I know, kaizo hacks still use the exact same mechanics and physics as the original game.
Anyway
