Doomerism aside: It's highly unlikely that he just randomly decided to launch a bunch of demos in rapid succession, update his blog numerous times, and repeatedly revise his estimate for release, if he didn't actually believe that the game was close to being done.

Even if he misses the end-of-july estimate (and remember: that's all it ever was), it just means that he doesn't believe that the game is in a good enough state to sell yet.

The game being very close to done still won't change, and I bet most people would rather wait a little longer than struggle with stupid bugs that inhibit their enjoyment.

“Registration complete” I heard those words!
If you specified the release date, it might be released by Saturday!

In Japanese developer or publisher lingo, 近日中 (kinjitsu-chū) usually implies within a few days to a week or so.

I'm practically a veteran of emotional war at this point.
Could it not mean a few hours or by today? It wouldn’t make sense for him to imply it’s coming in a few days but to also not extend the late July deadline.

If it's not on DLsite by 4PM JST then it's probably gonna be early August

Maybe... in general, it's not clear, but there are other expressions in Japanese that imply different degrees of "soon." For example:

まもなく (mamonaku): Implies something is about to happen very soon, often within hours or a day.

近日予定 (kinjitsu yotei): Suggests a plan or schedule within a short time frame, often understood as within a week.

近日公開 (kinjitsu kōkai): “Coming soon” – also vague, but more tied to releases.
