Trouble deploying to Heroku ( "Application Error" )

The project is attached through my github and it builds successfully, when I click "Open App" I get this an "Application Error"...

My "log" on Heroku looks like:

Node.js app detected
Creating runtime environment

   NPM_CONFIG_LOGLEVEL=error
   NPM_CONFIG_PRODUCTION=true
   NODE_VERBOSE=false
   NODE_ENV=production
   NODE_MODULES_CACHE=true

   engines.npm (package.json):   unspecified (use default)

   Resolving node version 6.x...

   - bower_components (nothing to cache)

   https://ken-neiheisel-studio.herokuapp.com/ deployed to Heroku

And my package.json

package.json

Not sure exactly what the problem is?

Recently had same problem using Heroku for the 1st time, where everything looked right, the Build completed fine, yet I couldn't seem to not get the "Procfile declares types -> (none)" error in the log. I tried everything then realized I must have previously bad version of Procfile in that project that was invisible to me. I was looking at my visible Folders in Windows, where the Procfile was perfect.

To fix I deleted my Procfile from the projecct folder. Did a fresh git add . and a fresh git commit -m "xxx" to load all the files to git/heroku...leaving Procfile out intentionally. That served to clear out the bad version of Procfile that was stored or cached in git or heroku. Then I added a new Procfile to the folder. Another git add . and commit -m, and finally all the weird errors surrounding the Procfile cleared and the App loaded to heroku/web.
