Is this pronounced Hydro City or Hydrocity like velocity?

As a wee lad in the 90's I called it Hydro City, so it just stuck with me my whole life. It's probably Hydrocity like velocity tho like you said.

Yeah I'm team Hydro City but I feel like Hydrocity makes sense cuz, y'know. Gotta go fast.

I've been calling it Hydro City all this time too. Considering we almost ended up with a level called Genocide City in Sonic 2, it's probably just an English(-sounding) word that's meant to be cool.
