In the late 80's and early 90's several video games held competitions called "Summer Carnival". In these events gamers would challenge each other at shoot-em-ups for prizes and fame. The games focused on special time attack modes lasting only 2 or 5 minutes long, and the objective was to get the highest score possible. Some games were even developed with only the time attack modes.
Those days are long over, but the challenge lives on.
