Pascal, Zig, V and possibly Crystal. Or Das C although arguably that is a subset of D.

V isn't anywhere near finish. The closest thing should be Zig. But that is far from finish as well.

Crystal is more like Go than C. But I mean someone wrote a OS [1] using Crystal in her spare time.

Or just plan old Pascal.

I mean if you are looking for simplicity like C and compiled to machine code you virtually ruled out 95% of all programming languages. Other languages like Lua is simple. But certainly dont fit the bill.
