Sheer coincidence, unless the Stranger Things creator likes Yuque and Yume Nikki (not impossible, but unlikely?). Though the motifs of the game imply that they may be even more similar than just appearances.

I'd just say it's an odd coincidence but not necessarily a bad one. Kinda cool really how two people on entirely different sides of the world can think up very similar characters. It takes a page from character designing I think, and what people attribute and associate certain traits to others with based on experiences. The color palette and type of clothes may just fit the personality or experiences the characters were both meant to have. I'm sure there is a large bit of symbolism in how their characters were formed the way they were. Hmm.
