Impossible Puzzle Solution? (Why did it have to be snakes?)

I can't solve this puzzle level for the life of me. Putting the second snake diagonal to the exit surrounded by spiders seems like a lose-lose?

If you press F2 in game, it copies the board state to your clipboard. You can then paste it into this forum and I can try to solve the level.

I think you can get 17 if you kill the two spiders on the top. Do a combo with snake on the top right. Kill the last snake.

AH! Thanks so much, I was really banging my head against this last night.

I didn't get to F2 but I stumbled on a title screen I wasn't able to solve yesterday:

Vampire gives me 5 XP.
Am I missing something? (I would be happy if I am missing something)

How do you have access to the old title screen?

Mine always looks like this:

The starting lvl exp gate is probably hardcoded. Now that the way exp works changed, i think theres a need to revisit those levels. Probably need to put this somewhere dev can see. :/

The "old" screen appears if you have not beaten regular world.

This is the title screen I had back in August:
http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1329211805

I haven't played much since it was released, I'm not sure why my save went backward but around the time I was playing I had a disk crash and maybe lost the save data then.
The News mention features such as daily challenge and I don't want where they are located, I suppose I need to clear the game again to access them?

What is making the puzzle impossible is this change:

• gameplay change: hitting special monsters without backstabbing them gives no xp (it used to give 1). This simplifies reading levels to max out xp.

Otherwise, turtle (1xp) into vampire (5xp) would open the exit (6xp).
