SpinDash sonic, sprite animation, HOW? example included!

I included a example link. Arrow keys to move and shift to jump. This is just like sonic2, anyways, How was this done? It was not made in VB but I think you can easily make it in VB if you have the sprite and bmp for the ground, but what code? Also does anyone know what program made this? Its a program to make windows app's. I dunno the name.
