I broke down and set this up with aws just to see what's going on for you guys.
I ended up running into the same problem (Alexa would not connect to the skill and there's no real indication as to why), and it turned out I had forgotten to change the SSL Certificate settings. Specifically, you need to tick the box that says My development endpoint is a sub-domain of a domain that has a wildcard certificate from a certificate authority.
This is indicated in the README toward the end of the Skill Setup Section. Hopefully this does the trick for you guys.. if not, at least know that it does work if you follow the README exactly
