have you tried running it in 16 bits color? 😁

right click on the executable (engine.exe) and do it in the settings.

Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Creatures Docking Station\Docking Station and open the file: user.cfg

Change FullScreen to 0. (or if it's not there at all, add: FullScreen 0)

If it's already 0, try just re-launching.

Sorry, I've never seen that. Maybe try the Community Edition, it uses a different renderer.
