I don't know how helpful this will be, but I've had a go at building one of these. It sort of works.
Ive built around 20 pedals now, and Im only *just* getting them to work first time.
The things you haven't mentioned that *might* be an issue are electrolytics being the wrong way around, faulty IC's, misplaced jumpers/off board wiring.
To be honest (and I did this with a Ross Phaser build 3 times!), I would start over with a new vero, with fresh components (they aren't expensive). You have the off-board wiring, so no need to change that (unless you have the 1-2-3 lugs around the wrong way).
See this build as a learning point, and try to make the soldering a bit neater, the component legs a little shorter etc.
The fundamentals of this layout are no different, construction-wise, than a tiny Naga Viper (also on this forum). It's just more soldering. And consequently *much* harder to locate and fix errors.
So, that's what I would do.
Good luck either way.
