The player is represented by 'P', and the bullet is represented by '*'. The player can move using WASD keys, and firing a bullet is done with the spacebar. The game continuously cycles through the map display and updates player and bullet positions based on player actions. Note that this is a very basic example solely for demonstrating WASD and spacebar-controlled shooting game implementation using C++. Actual game development involves more complex logic and features."}
