Escape from Van Zandt

Story: 

The year is 3062. You have been shipped off to a penal colony on the backwater world known as Van Zandt. You have no intentions of sticking around. Lucky for you, one of the guards left his mech running during his lunch break. You have made it past the prison walls, but you broke one of your mech's arms in the process. Now a group of bounty hunters have cornered you in this valley. You will have to fight them off if you hope to Escape From Van Zandt.
