I was reading it as a cut down C++, or maybe a cut-up C.


If you think that C++ has too many features, then I can see a reduced
version. Personally, I think that is why I like Java over C++.


Well, for one, it is more C-like than C++.


Otherwise, I believe the source for the original C++ compiler, which
converted to C for a C compiler, is still around, and could be used as
a start for a new C++ like language.
