Introduction puzzle: here

So, my first Shikakui Hebi puzzle didn't go well, so I'm trying again! Only this time, no more arrows. Instead, it's now a nonogram-like!

This is a Shikakui Hebi puzzle. Rules of Shikakui Hebi are:

  • Solvers are to draw 1 big snake/a long line with twists and turns around a rectangular grid.

  • The snake is not allowed to form a loop, which means the edges of the snake cannot connect.

  • The snake always starts in the lower right corner.

  • The snake MUST NOT cross through shaded squares.

  • The snake MUST cross through circles.

New rules:

  • Outer numbers mean that there are that many squares that contain the piece of the snake.

  • If the numbers say 1 3, then it means that there is at least 1 empty square between the 1 square and the 3 squares.

Enjoy!

    $\begingroup$ Are you sure the solution is unique? I can see the snake can be in many different positions, each makes a same solution. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ I checked, and the outer numbers make the solution unique. In fact, I would be happy if you tell me the other solutions in an answer so I can fix them. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ Look, being the puzzle like a nonogram, I can see no importance of the circles. Solving the nonogram directly gives you the path. Is there any relationship I am missing with the circles? $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ The nonogram means that a piece of the snake is in that place, not the direction it's facing. The circles are supposed to help with that. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ Also, a note. You got downvotes probably because for this reason that the solution is not unique. $\endgroup$
