What's a "Caravan" Shmup?

A caravan shmup is primarily a short 2-5 minute score attack shoot 'em up, where the goal is to get the highest score possible. Caravan shmups often feature ground targets to destroy, enemy formations that spawn after previous formations are destroyed, and secret bonuses from shooting hidden targets or from destroying multiple enemies at once. Check out these videos for examples of the caravan shmup genre.
