Ubuntu and Debian image not work.
Both cannot mount /dev/loop0, seems missing loop kernel module.

I would not jump to conclusions, what exactly is not working for you.
And no generalities pick a version/flavor that is not working and be specific about the bug you are experiencing.

How much ram is in the machine you are trying to boot off of?

Then it would seem your squash file did not download properly, mine is 1.6 gigs yours says 360 megs:

root@odroidxu4-3:/home/thelamer/assets/ubuntu-squash/releases/download/945f7f4b-85bee8cf# ls -lh
total 1.6G
-rw-r--r-- 1 thelamer thelamer 1.6G Feb 13 07:29 filesystem.squashfs

And I can boot into budgie locally hosting these assets also.

Try re-downloading it.
