Risk of Rain 2? If I recall right, most characters are female or ambiguous. Noita is another flawless gem.
Are games where gender isn't explicitly defined okay?

Celeste. It's tough as nails, but it's so rewarding and the story is.....gah!
Sayonara Wildhearts. I bet she could play it herself
Ōkami.
Well, she's a wolf, but she's the Sun Goddess too.
There's that Disney dream light game or something like that, definitely seems child friendly.
Very child friendly and lots of fun, at least last I played, and I can’t imagine Disney of all people really changing that to much.
We love Knights on Bikes for our girls to play.
Old but gold, the Longest Journey, since you seem to want something story centered.
Giana Sisters as female C64 clone of Mario Bros.
I think Tchia may be just what you're looking for!
Oh! For a solid coop experience check out any of the little big planets. Lots of cute costumes for character customization.
For a gender neutral character I can recommend Toem! It’s incredibly cute and charming.
Alba: A Wildlife Adventure
It's very wholesome and relaxing. She can probably play this herself.
Roughly what age are we talking? The list you linked is accurate and pretty much all the mainstream ones. Also,
Telltales The Walking Dead
Minecraft Story Mode
Baldur's Gate 3
Ms. Pac-Man, but of course!
There's always Animal Crossing and its many sequels... you're not obligated to play as a female, but it's at least an option. Metroid has a female lead, but those games are probably a little beyond your daughter's grasp at the moment.
Contrast on Xbox market was awesome. Really fun platformer that has an amazing soundtrack too
The Longest Journey / Dreamfall / Dreamfall Chapters. Absolutely magical games.
Hey!
It's not coop, but I recently played "The Big Con" (with Gamepass) and it's more of a fun ride with an easy control scheme and decent puzzles. While the FeMC isn't the classic "strong female lead", she is a teenager growing up and develops throughout the game and it's story.
I found it very funny (your daughter might not get every joke, tough), depicts some good topics (trust, family and responsibility) in a very lighthearted way with a cute art style. :)
One I haven't seen mentioned yet, Dreamscaper. Its an action roguelite about a girl who battles her inner "demons" at night and lives her life in a new town during the day.
Gianna sisters: twisted dreams
Beyond good and evil
Main character:
Lost in random Beyond good and evil Night in the woods Infamous first light A hat in time Spiritfarer Celeste
Good overall:
Final Fantasy X Bioshock Infinite ( saw your age update lol) Ratchet and Clank rift apart
That’s what I can think of from the top of my head. I’ll see if I can come up with some more.
From the link you posted I highly recommend “Kena: Bridge of Spirits”. Gorgeous game with a solid story and fun gameplay. Great job for a small studios first game.
Ignore the age inappropriate ones obviously
