      In an older Flash game called "ASCIIvania" that I mentioned in another comment, the developer didn't even deal with it, both letters J and Z are in a single room, labelled "USELESS AND ABANDONED THINGS" :P
      The letter Q is the final letter that you obtain, to complete the game.

      ​@@hisupwassup​ But aside from the single room that teaches the star mechanic, the text boxes simply serve as ammo sources, and don't really need to be read. And the "Star and T" clue can easily be refined to "* and T" or "* + T" to remove all ambiguity in other languages. So probably not as big of an issue as we might imagine.

    as someone who did a 50 second speedrun of the game, it felt weird watching someone new to the game. the star t thing took me literal days to get because someone had to tell me. also oyu can use the star mechanic to completley skip the last 3rd of the version i speedran
