He ultimately gave the game a "great" rating of 8/10 concluding that while it may be short, it was "clearly lovingly put-together" and managed to "refreshingly" make horror "cute and fun, rather than take itself seriously". Positive mention was also given to the game's final boss, which Craddock felt "offered a slightly different experience that was put together nicely".
Ryan Craddock of Nintendo Life, similarly gave the Nintendo Switch version of Bulb Boy a positive review, citing its "successful mixture of ideas" which "see you doing different things as you progress through the story." Craddock also praised its "simple" controls, noting that while the lack of touchscreen input in a point-and-click style game might seem like a "missed opportunity", it meant that players would have the same experience whether in handheld or TV mode. He also bemoaned one instance where a control option wasn't clear to him, causing a puzzle to stump him for the "wrong reason". Of the few gripes Nation had with Bulb Boy, its short length was one of them. The touch controls were similarly lauded, with Nation calling the game "easy to pick up" as a result. He also praised the music, feeling that it was "appropriately themed" and helped "reinforce what's on the screen nicely". He praised the game's artstyle, positively comparing it to the work of The Ren & Stimpy Show creator John Kricfalusi calling the visuals "a lot of fun". Writing for Nintendo World Report, Justin Nation gave the game an 8/10. Review aggregator Metacritic gave the Switch version of Bulb Boy a score of 75 out of 100, indicating "generally favorable reviews".
