Above.

I just downloaded the LTS (Long Term Stable) version of Godot Game Engine, I'm trying to run it, and I can't extract the zip file into a folder where the app works.

I have Googled, and followed instructions to the letter, but it just extracts a .64 file that doesn't work on Chrome OS.

Can anyone help?

I have Googled.

Enable linux dev environment and open a terminal session.
cd to the directory of the .64 file and run the file through the terminal with ./<filename>
Like ./godot.64
You might have to chown and chmod the file to give it the right permissions.

In actual fact I got it working via a download from Steam last week.

One of the few things on Steam that actually works on Linux.
