Im using all the same information at the Login, as I entered when creating a duplicated User. Even deleted THAT user, and created a new User incase i missed something, and same overall result. bummed out this looks like alot of fun!
Are you forwarding ports at your router correctly?
Are you allowing 3306 through your Windows Firewall?
Are you sure you are using the same exact credentials you made in your user

When you make your user you need to make sure that you don't use the IP address of YOUR machine - because it is specifying what IP address the user will connect FROM if you wanted to restrict it, otherwise % means any host.

All of these things have to be set up correctly or it simply won't work. Once it does - you'll be really happy.
