Why don't you pick your own moves one by one in the opening, you can get the game as complex as you like. Just keep basic principles in mind

Surely trying to reinvent the wheel every game is not the way to improvement.

No, but thinking about each of your moves can't be wrong either. Especially in the opening, where most logical choices are part of an existing opening.
I don't know many openings, but not sticking to one leaves options which are overlooked easily when using one. At least that's what I think.

Most of the extremely complex openings are in a way 'illogical' One side makes imbalances, either be it with pawn structures, pawn sac, or even piece sacrifices. This leads to extremely complex openings, as one side may have more material etc, but the other side usually has a powerful initiative.
To the OP, I suggest maybe looking at the Perenyi attack.
can you post a game with the perenyi attack?
Here's some complex ones, but if you are going to take one up make sure you learn the theory, or your dead!
Sicilians: Sveshnikov, Najdorf, Schveningen, Dragon.
French Winawer
Some lines of the ruy lopez, like the Marshall and Zaitsev variations
The KID, Gruenfeld, Dutch Leningrad and Semi-Slav are some very complicated replies to 1.d4
Some line of the Pirc and Alekhine's defence can also be very complex, and I am sure there are other openings I failed to mention. Make sure you learn your theory in these lines if you plan on playing them!
Thank you bigty
Does anybody know some very very complex openings. I read today's article and I loved the way black played in that opening. Are there any other openings for black or white just like that
