	This mod received one of the 2014 Cacowards on Doomworld!

Resurgence is a Boom-compatible megawad by Josh Sealy (Joshy) released on 22 September 2014. The project is described as an update from one of Sealy's previous projects, Surge. Similar to Speed of Doom, drawing inspiration from Scythe and Plutonia. The second secret level was designed by Darkwave0000, who co-authored Speed of Doom with Sealy.

Over half of the soundtrack is taken from other sources, though fifteen original tracks were contributed to the project by John Weekley (PRIMEVAL) and Stuart Rynn (stewboy).

Resurgence was one of the winners at the 21st Annual Cacowards.
