A Question about Spelunky

As you've told me, Spelunky was made with Game Maker. So this means games made in the Game Maker Engine can be put on XBLA? Or did they have to use different code, like C++. They used the same sprites, textures, music, sounds but different code?

I would assume they were using different code, since GM is built with Java, and 'XBLA' games are made with XNA - which is a framework for C# and the .NET framework. (If I am not mistaken)

no no no, xblig is XNA.
Arcade(XBLA) is c++ and directX.
