If you say you can't use the pen tablet to draw; in a sense you can't click or stroke using your pen in the drawing area provided, it usually caused by the "Windows Ink" option of your tablet currently on (contradicting a proper drawing software which require you to actually turn this option on).
Turning "Windows Ink" off from your tablet utility software should fixes this issue and you should be able to draw there (it works for me).
If by "working like any other drawing softwares", of course the link provided for the contest won't have the features of a proper drawing software (e.g. pressure sentivity / brush dynamics, smooth strokes).
It's just gonna make your drawing process better and easier than using a mouse :o
