What language? Which tools?

Have you tried google? Just enter your language and 2d scrolling, and you'll find plenty of hits.

Could you please specify what you exactly mean by "scrolling backgound"? Because I don't see any background scrolling in the game you've posted.
Do you mean parallax scrolling (like here - foreground is moving faster then background) or just normal scrolling?

This tutorial for XNA covers repeating a background image and parallaxing. I found it quite helpful. http://create.msdn.com/en-US/education/tutorial/2dgame/drawing_the_background
