when running the source code zip file it simply plays a looping animation, not the game

As I already told you, it's unlikely that you can play the game just by opening the html file in a browser. You need to start a webserver. Or [better] learn how to launch Linux apps on the ChromeOS.

i have done lots of research, and have concluded i don't know what i'm doing but i don't think it's possible to launch linux apps other than .deb files

(also thanks for making this version of spelunky classic it's awesome)

I'm pretty sure, you can run .AppImage: https://www.google.com/search?q=run+appimage+on+chromeos

Also, if your Chromebook has x86_64 processor (not ARM), there is a chance that it is possible to launch regular non html5 version.
