2 cents extra here...
"Feel" and gameplay time are probably the main factors. Feel is hard to define though, it's made from the story, map*, and more... If a one screen D-Mod had an amazing 5 hour story and kept changing the background tiles, sprite etc to make it seem different, why can't that be an epic?
Similarly, if Dink X Trivia were 5 hours long that would still be a romp.
There are no hard and fast rules here anyway. Most D-Mods will fit easily into a category but there will always be borderline cases.

*Yes, including size. Or at least perceived size
