I like playing pawn games, the goal is to promote without a king just with pawns. Do you have any variation ideas you like?
How about en passant for any passing pawn anywhere on the board and if you en passant past a pawn they can en passant you back xxx
it's very original idea.
I didn't think about that before

In opposite chess the goal is to get checkmated. The king is not between the rooks and uncastling can only be done when there are no pieces between the king and that rook. Uncastling brings the king closer to the centre. and can only be done if the king is in check or passed through check. Otherwise it follows normal castling. Pawns attack forward and move diagonally forward and pawns can promote to any piece except a queen. En passant is also reversed: when a pawn moves two squares forward and another pawn goes right beside it the pawn moving 2 squares forward can capture it. Resigning and letting time run out also counts as a win, and it is okay for kings to move into check. In fact, you can’t uncheck the king when it is attacked and you must check if you can.
I would say a chess in which your goal is to take all your opponents pieces, in other words the opposite of antichess

You are considering another option here, I have another idea, subtitled "Chess-Shogi":
1) Almost all traditions of chess and shogiare preserved. But the pieces are chess.
2) Pawns do not turn into pieces, but rises up and walks like kings.
3) Other pieces, except for the king and queen:
The elephant rises to -, which moves one cage like a tour and a normal elephant.
The rook is raised to -, which moves one square like an elephant and a regular rook.
The horse rises into a dragon, it walks 2 squares and crouches horizontally and vertically.
4) Promotion at the level of lines 7,2 is optional, and 8,1 is mandatory.

That is a great idea!
