Ooooh, okay - at first I thought you just didn't want to play with him, and was kind of sad for him. Nevermind, though, you sound like an awesome pet parent :)
Personally, I have 4 cats. Two of them won't play with toys on their own, one will bat some toys around for a bit, and the last will play from dawn till dusk on his own. It could be a personality thing with him, where he's just not into playing alone.
If you know that's not the case, sometimes it takes a lot of random $1 toys to figure out what makes him tick (This is why our cats literally have their own toybox!)
My cats who sometimes likes to play by himself loves rattling toys, crinkling toys, and balls - he'll sit there and roll them around on the carpet and hardwood floors, butt-wiggle-stalking and all.
My cat who is really into self-play likes small soft toys that he can toss in the air, but his all time favorite toy is a dog treat. (Long story short, I bought some Dingo treats for my neighbor, and before I could deliver them, my cat tore into the package and went nuts). He doesn't chew on them - he plays with them like he would any other toy, but those dog treats are far and away his all-time favorite.
tl;dr: If your cat is the kind to happily entertain himself, sometimes it just takes trial and error to figure out what makes him tick. Trying out toys with different sounds, textures, lights, and smells is probably your best bet.
And u/HelloKittyy is right about the turbo scratcher - that's a favorite of their's, too!
 
Some of my cats favorites that fit within your description:
chirping bird
Kitty Wubba
Battabout
Sock Pals
Crinkling and Rattling balls
Treat ball (For the food-oriented cat)
Or you could always make your own toys! (My two most playful fur-babies, Mojo (left) and Leo (right), trying to grab a ping pong ball)
I'm dealing with the exact same issue, our boy has start pawing at the bedroom door and the rattling is becoming too much to handle. Glad to have your insight on the motion sensor air spray as that was the option my fiance was considering. We haven't tried this personally yet, but I was looking into a ScatMat. It seems like it would extend far enough in front of the bedroom door so our cat can't just try to lean his way against it to paw. Good luck and I would love to hear about any results!
My cats have a ton of toys too, these are the only ones they really like now and still play with:
https://www.chewy.com/yeowww-catnip-pollock-fish-cat-toy/dp/130278 (I was skeptical my cat would play with this but they all went INSANE with it - kicking up a storm and wrestling with it)
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0006N9I68/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 (this one you have to play with them. I'd say it mimics flying insects and my cats NEVER get tired of it)
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JANUEQ8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 (a wand toy. Mine get bored with wands after awhile but for some reason really like this one)
A laser pointer is always good for exercise and fun also.
I would suggest a ssscat spray can or ssscat mat. Worked like a charm for us! The mat is more of an investment up front, but you'll never need to purchase replacement cannisters:
https://www.amazon.ca/PetSafe-ScatMat-Training-Large-inches/dp/B0017XBDPA/ref=sr_1_5?keywords=ssscat&qid=1574462631&sr=8-5&th=1
Put the can or mat just outside your bedroom door and they'll either have the shit scared out of them by the spray can, or they'll get a mild shock from stepping on the mat (which is enough for them to learn not to go there).
I did a cross country trip, by myself with two cats and I read every article I could find to prepare for the trip. I highly recommend that you do not take the advice of some of the others here that say you can let your cat roam free in the car. Regardless of how well you know your cat, it is still a cat, and he will definitely be freaked out during this adventure, it would only take a second with the window down and a loud semi truck to go past and you cat freaks and hops out the window, or maybe when you're paying a toll, or just a stoplight. There's also the possibility of him going under your pedals and making you unable to drive properly. What I did was I purchased a large kennel, it fit into the backseat of my car, and took up the whole backseat (it was about $100), then they had room to move but were still contained. Most cats will not eat or use a litterbox whole traveling (some will not most won't) so it's best to limit your driving times to 8 hours or less. I did get a spill resistant water dish and I would put it back there when I stopped for gas or for water, though again, they were too freaked out and rarely, if at all, took a drink - which is another good reason to limit your travel time. For a litterbox I got a rubbermaid/large Tupperware type container, that way in between stops I had a lid I could put on it. I had harnesses on both of mine and would just carry them one by one into the hotel, while holding on securely to them and the harness, really hold onto them firmly when doing that transport. I put a link below to the type of kennel I suggest. Hope this helps, feel free to ask me more questions if I missed anything!

I really love the wellness brand wet food for kittens. It's probably the best wet food you can buy from a pet store.
Did you use an enzymatic cleaner? I've had really good success with this one: https://www.amazon.com/Mister-Max-Original-Remover-Gallon/dp/B000I6NF6W
I have two cats and we have one of these for each of them & they’re by far our favorite carrier we’ve used. They have both side and top open options, which we’ve found very useful at various points. We leave them sitting out in the corner of our office and the kittens will even take naps in them (this was something that I saw suggested here and has seemed to make a big difference in our cats comfort level with the carriers). We also usually cover the sides with a towel to limit overstimulation for our shyer cat and since we started doing that she’s been way less stressed about using the carrier.

i have this one but it's currently unavailable
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000N5WJUG/
you just need to make sure the bag can fit in. the above can hold a 6 pound bag
Yeah I get that. She was feral and is about 2 years old, so there's a good chance she didn't have a previous owner even briefly. That said, I use pretty high quality shampoo and soap, so it's unlikely someone else used it.
The one thing I realized last night was that my normal shampoo (https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B000IZ8KZ4) has mint in it, and mint is in the same family as catnip, which means some cats go a bit crazy over it. I tried not using it when I showered last night, and did not see the aggression. That said, I also didn't let her in the bathroom until I was fully dried off.
I would get an indoor cat grass planter like this one https://www.amazon.com/Catit-Senses-2-0-Cat-Grass/dp/B015J4I51M grass is actually very good for cats digestion. As for the bolting, I know of people who have had success with this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000A76ZYS/?cv_ct_id=amzn1.idea.ERFFU9PN21D&cv_ct_pg=storefront&cv_ct_wn=aip-storefront&ref=exp_cov_myfosterkittens_dp_vv_d its like an electric fence for dogs but the barrier is the doorway.
Other people have good ideas in this thread but also there is special cat-attractive litter box training litter that you should try. It works for re-training too. https://www.amazon.com/Dr-Elseys-Attract-Problem-Training/dp/B000PKY7YA
If your kitty is getting more water from a fountain, then they don't necessarily need wet food. Just be sure to feed them a high-quality grain-free dry food and they'll be good to go.
Here's what I use:
https://www.amazon.com/Taste-Wild-Mountain-Protein-Natural/dp/B0018CJYCO/ref=sr_1_3?s=pet-supplies&ie=UTF8&qid=1525380571&sr=1-3&keywords=taste+of+the+wild+cat+food+dry
Similar to the shower idea, get one of these (or one like it). Put your cat in a carrier and loosely cover it with a light towel. Position the steamer towards the front of the carrier and let it fill up with steam. This is what we do for very congested cats and a couple sessions a day makes a huge difference.
https://www.amazon.com/Imperial-Cat-Grass-Seeds-4-Ounce/dp/B0017JBB8I/ref=mp_s_a_1_8?keywords=Imperial+cat&qid=1554912337&s=gateway&sr=8-8
This brand?? Thank you so much for the suggestion! When you say disposable sandwich containers.. I'm picturing a ziplock bag. But I don't think you have that in mind..
If you are in the US it is this version that is available. And it seems it can be bought without a vet on amazon in the US. It's slightly different formulation but should work just as well.
https://www.amazon.com/Siphotrol-Premise-Control-Spray-16-Ounce/dp/B000KVSTC0?th=1&psc=1
We've had [pet stairs] (https://www.amazon.com/Stairs-Steps-Ladder-Portable-Travel/dp/B000H7K2MM/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1480022030&sr=8-5&keywords=Pet+Steps+Stairs) like these for an elderly cat, so she could get up onto a bed.

If juggling your cat's food becomes a problem and since all cats have a hunting instinct, you may want to try puzzle feeders; any type of puzzle feeder will do. I use mouse feeders Doc & Phoebe's Indoor Hunting Cat Feeder https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B07HFKDJF8/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_i_iEGPCbSNHKAWM When your cat figures it out, you can start to hide them in different places in the home. This will keep your cat busy when you're not home as well as satisfy that hunting instinct. G'luck!
I am using the Drinkwell Platinum as well. Do you own the cleaning kit?
I keep mine upstairs and find it particularly difficult to lug it around full of water. I dump the old water out of my window before taking it downstairs.
The kit makes cleaning it easier, but it has all those awkward areas in the back where the pump is located..
