Did you read Pimoroni's own website entry for that part?

https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/tiny-2040

where it says:

*Notes*

   * The RGB LED is connected to GP18-GP20 and active low (so the
     on/off state will work in the opposite way to the LED on a
     Raspberry Pi Pico). You can PWM the pins to dim the LED - check
     out Tonygo2's MicroPython example.

The example cited is Python, so not directly of use to you, but here is 
the link, anyway:
