but I do play run and then git push heroku master

Answer 1

You need to create a file named Procfile in the root of your project and for Play it should contain

web: play run --http.port=$PORT $PLAY_OPTS

When you then deploy your application the $PORT and $PLAY_OPTS will be set by heroku when the application is started.
