Good Stuff
I liked this a lot. You can see a lot of potiental in the story and in your own animation.
My few minor problems with the movie are the following:
1) Needs more frames. It would be better if the animation wasn't so choppy.
2) Your style varies a lot from scene to scene. I'm not sure if this was done on purpose or what, but consistency would have flowed better.
3) I liked the audio/music but the transitions weren't smooth.
4) Buttons I found to be pointless (i read your reason for why they are there). You could have just went with a black screen with text. It would have a had a better feel instead of the viewer having to come out of the trance you want them.
It might sound like I didn't enjoy your work, but I really did. And I want to see more of it. Even if its a Ascendence: Director's Cut attention.
