Without cheating, of course!  If your 1896 was also without, care to 
share your method?


No method as such - although I jumped a couple of times less then you 
did, as it

costs a second or so in time.

I'll try and figure out recording - although I probably wouldnt get the same
score now :(

Probably down to the number of times I've practised... :-)

I've played through it countless times during SimCoupe testing, and 
noticed I got around the same score most runs.  A good run gives me 
1875, though that's still without pixel-perfect jumps.

Next time you've got time to kill, give it a try!

Here's an 1875, and I've had 1876 by following the clockwork creature a 
little closer on the way back:
