Doesn't look like the intended colors. In fact this is what you'd get if the *composite* graphics (selectable by hitting "1" after the title screen) were somehow running in mode 4 (320x200 palette 0 background 1) instead of mode 6 (foreground 0xA) as they should be, and viewed on RGB instead of a composite display.

That's an old screenshot from 1999; guess it was taken from a not-quite-CGA-compatible VGA card or so.
